I have hemochromotois,but that is not my main problem.The problem is lumps in my arm right over my elbow and one on my wrist.There is one where my arm hooks to my body.My doctor said it might be fatty tumors.A cancer doctor said it was not anything to worry about after checking my arm for about 3 min.My arm hurts all the time and when I take something for the pain the lumps get really hard.Scared please help.///darlene My age ius 42

Dear Dobbie, I don’t know what these lumps could be, without an examination and putting that information together with your health history. If the lumps are causing you discomfort perhaps having them evaluated by a general surgeon who could discuss with you the benefit of having them removed.
