What Does A Small Lump On Bicep Indicate?

I have a small lump at top right of my right bicep. It feels like a small fatty cyst under the skin but I am worried as I have had a low grade sarcoma surgically removed from my left shoulder earlier this year!! I just hope it s not something of that ilk. I am having it hacked next Monday at the sarcoma clinic.

Sarcomas usually spread by blood.. It's less likely to be a similar swelling ..but don't take chance.. As you already you had a sarcoma excised earlier it's better to remove that swelling and send it for examination..hope I have answered you query..Have a good day..
