How Can Four Lumps On The Calves, Right Knee And Right Arm Be Treated?
I have 4 lumps on my skin, one on each calf, one on the right knee, and one on my right arm. It never goes away, looks like pimples but they aren’t. Skin gets very hard on top of these lumps. No pain, just looks unattractive. All four are about the size of a pinky nail.

Hi,
Multiple lumps of the size that you have mentioned can be due to the commonest being lipomas. Rarely other causes of some other disorder can present like this.
Hence I would advise you to consult a General Surgeon for clinical examination. Ultrasound and FNAC to confirm. Excision biopsy to confirm if still in doubt. This will also help to get rid of the disease.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
