Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hello my name is Andrew and i m an 18 year old sexually active male. recently i discovered a very small but painful lump on my right inner elbow. i m a little worried as to what it could be because im a heavy smoker. it is about the size of a small peanut and it is slightly reddened and painful to the touch.
As of now you can use analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like Aceclofenac/Seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopaedician and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
