Hi. I've had this red bump on my arm for a few months now. It's on the bingo wing part of my arm where there are quite a few stretch marks.

It feels like a tiny bead under the skin. It's sore if I press it.

It's niggling me so might go to gp but asking if anyone has had anything similar?

If its any relation I'm on hrt and have been for a few years and have had a lot of odd hormone issues. I'm 38.

I have a lot of health things that have been more pressing than this in recent months.

I have something that looks remarkably like that on my lower arm. It's no trouble at all but gives a sharp pain if I knock it. My GP took photos of it and sent them to be analysed. It turned out to be a harmless collection of blood vessels and nothing needs to be done. I'd just go to the GP and get it checked out as it really put my mind at rest.

Thanks. I keep poking it so it's a bit tender now. It's definitely not a spot which is what I thought it was for ages.

The pain feels like there's a thorn in it when I knock it if that's any help.

Yes that feels similar. I think I'll call gp tomorrow because I'm stressing myself out. I'm an over thinker.
