What Causes Lump Like Growth On Wound On Forearm?
I was involved in a vehicular accident last October and my forearm had multiple lacerations and had few stitches. My wounds are healed now, however I noticed a lump on the area that had been injured. It had been 2 months now but the lump has not disappeared yet. Thanks.
