Suggest Treatment For Fatty Cysts On The Forearm
I have a couple of fatty cysts. At least that is what people have told me they are. They are on the outer ridge of my forearm, one on each arm. I have had them for several years and they are never a problem, however one, the smaller of the two has now turned purplish. Is this something I should be concerned about? It looks as though I have a big round bruise on my forearm.

Based on your description they looks to be non serious lesion but need a physical examination to confirm.They can be removed surgically if you like.
Hope this helps.
