What Causes A Large Lump On The Crease Of The Elbow?

two weeks ago I noticed a strawberry size lump in my right arm, just south of elbow bend. lasted couple days then started to shrink a little. two days later I noticed a big strawberry lump, on my left arm - inside center, just above the elbow crease. and a smaller one on left of center, and one on each side of center just below the crease. what can this be? is it swollen lymph nodes? and what should be done. or nothing.

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with a lump of a size of strawberry at both side of your arm left side resolving followed by swelling of the right side I am suggesting that you have developed a Lymphadenopathy

In view of this please see a dermatologist specialist where a lymph node biopsy will be done as well as expert clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription and possible surgical excision of the lumps

I hope this helps Regards
