Talk to Orthopedic Surgeon on Soft Movable Lump On The Back Of The Elbow (possible Lipoma Or Bursitis)
Asking for Father, Male, 54 years old, Tangwani
My father has developed a soft lump on the back of his elbow. The lump has been present for about one month. It is approximately the size of a walnut. The skin color over the lump is normal and there is no pain. When touched, the lump feels soft and it moves slightly under the skin. There is no redness, swelling, fever, or injury that we know of. We would like to know what this lump could be and whether any test (such as ultrasound) or treatment is required.

Thank you
Good explanation. Considering the short duration of this lump looks like olecranon bursa. Better to do ultrasound to rule out other possibility like lipoma .
As the color of the skin is normal and no pain , it means no infection.
Share the results of ultrasound.
Hope for the best Inshallah
