Have Lumps On Forearm And Wrist, Painful To Touch. Worried
I have had 2 small lumps appear, 1 on my forearm and 1 by my wrist. They have come on suddenly and are painful to touch...the one by my wrist hurts constantly. They are under the skin and non-protruding. I have not banged my arm on anything that i recall , but the one on my forearm appeared with a bruise, which has already gone away. I was kinda worried about it as a similiar thing happen when i had surgery a couple of months ago after having an I.V. taken out of my arm...I large lump appeared in that area and moved up and down my arm before finally going away a couple of weeks later. If you could give me any suggestions of what could be causing this would be great.

Hi, it appears to be the utricaria, or may be the boil due to insect bite, or otherwise. It usually resolves by own, other wise the treatment with the medicines may be required. So i advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
