What Does A Lump Below The Elbow Indicate?
I woke up this morning with a knot/lump the size of a quarter on the inside of my bicep near the elbow. approximately an inch down from elbow crease. its sore but no irritation on skin or redness. I recently had been doing some work outside cutting tree limbs and moving brush and had several bug bites from doing so. is it possible this could be a gland? or something else more serious ? thanks
