<s>[INST] Quite a few months back I started having pain in my elbow and nearby, talked to my doctor about it and she said she thought it was carpal tunnel but wasn t worried about it. The pain comes and goes and I have noticed recently that sometimes I have pain in the area where this new lump is but I never really noticed a lump until today. But today I happened to go to scratch the area and felt something weird under the skin and started feeling around and looking at it and realized that there is a pretty large kind of hard lump under the skin that is definitely not on the other arm and that I never noticed before. I am quite concerned but don t know if I should be. I have just arrived today to volunteer at a camp for a week and am wondering if this is something I should make an appointment for with my doctor for when I get back or if I should have the on site doctor look at it and if I should be concerned. Thank you for your time! [/INST] thanks for sharing your health concerns with us!you have to mention the size of the lumps; however, it seems that these are some kind of COLLECTION within the swelling! possibilities are Ganglion, bursa, an abscess or some gouty tophus! san FNAC TEST IS THE BEST WAY TO CONFIRM IT!all the best................... </s>
