Lump on my inner elbow...
I am a 26 year old female...so for a few weeks, I've had a rash/mini pimples on the inner part of my elbow on my left arm. Now, there's a small lump that has formed there under the skin. It's slightly tender to the touch, and it's hard. I've been doing a lot of lifting with that arm, and every once in awhile I feel a twinge of pain in that same arm. What really scares me is that I have a history of lymphoma...are there even lymphnodes in that area? I'm going to see a doctor regardless of what answers I get on here, but I was just curious to see if anyone else has experienced this problem and what the outcome was...thanks!

the lymphatic system is literally everywhere in your body. aside from that, what have you been up to? have you been sitting at a table or desk a lot? my job a while back included sitting at a desk for 12 hours a day 7 days a week, due to rubbing on the desk, the small hairs on my elbow area were rub-cut, and became ingrown. it could be possible that you just have a big ingrown hair. another possibility, if you're into sports, is tennis elbow. thats annoying. as for the twinges, that might be the ligament snapping back into its channel. does that to me a lot.
good luck
