What Causes A Lump On The Forearm?

Hello, Im a busy mom and law student. I did alot of yardwork on Monday and that night I took 5 hours of notes with my left arm. I woke up that Tuesday with a colorless lump on my forearm. It is positioned near my cephalic vein. It is somewhat firm and I can kind of move it from side to side. There is no bruising or swelling.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some benign cyst or some soft tissue tumor like nodular fasciitis or dome other tumor. You should go for excision biopsy of that lump.
Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.
