Suggest Treatment For Itchy Lump On Forearm
A quarter size skin colored lump suddenly appeared beneath my skin on my forearm. It is kind of itchy, but not painful. I have been in the woods a lot recently, but I don t see any kind stinger, or bite marks on or near the lump. It is large enough to be very noticeable to others.

Hi,
It seems that this might be due to some insect bite giving localized allergic reaction producing lump.
Take Cetrizine, or Levo-cetrizine or Benadryl for 2-3 days.
Apply Vaseline or triple cream locally.
Ok and take care.
