What Causes Pea Sized Lump In Elbow Joint?

Hello, I have a pea sized lump on the inside of my elbow joint. It is not painful and moves around a bit if I push it. There is no skin discolouration. It appeared suddenly. I have had the same thing a month ago for a couple of days but it disappeared but now it has come back. What is it and should I have it checked?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I think it can be osteophytes or accumulation of calcium in the sides of bone articulations. They are not likely to go away and there is no treatment about it.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
