Possibly: A lump "in my arm" can be a lot of thing. On one hand, it may be a benign skin lesion like a lipoma or epidermoid cyst. On the opposite end of the spectrum, it may represent an enlarged lymph node from numerous causes (infection, cancer, rheumatologic disease etc.) only your doctorr can examine it and give you a diagnosis or tell you what the work up will be, .
