Can lipoma present as a light bluish green nodule on tricep. nodule is under pale skin spot. doc thinks lipoma but i cant find pics quite like mine.

Blue means blood.: Lipomas in the skin generally show no color or a pale beige. Bluish green could mean the mass is actually a varicose vein or a clotted vein. If this thing has you worried, then simply have it excised by a general surgeon or a vein surgeon.
