tiny lump under skin

[constantworrier418]

I don't know if I'm imagining it but I think I felt a tiny lump under the skin along my upper arm. I'm comtinually checking it and sometimes its there and then others I can't feel it but I don't trust myself to discount it so I'm worrying and thinking it could be cancer and I need to get to the dr's asap to get reasurrance.

Has anyone got any reasurrance as I've got 1 and half days of thinking about this until I can try and get a dr app and I know from previous cancer worries I won't rest until I see a dr.

Hiya

I have small lumps in many places that I have flashed at doctors in the past(poor them). Best to show them but be reassured that all my lumps are "nothing to worry about". I have come to the conclusion that like my dog I am getting more and more lumps as I get older!!:D


Go just to be sure but you'll be fine I am sure!!

I know saying relax is not easy, so just know we are here, and let us know what your dr. says.

I have quite a few of these, they are called lipomas. Just fatty tissue under the skin. Harmless and common. Stop worrying about it.

thank you for your posts I'm going to try and avoid touching the area in question and see how I feel tomorrow when the gp surgery opens.
