A member asked:

Hi, i had a lump in the crease of my inner elbow i pressed down on it a few times and now seems to have gone i am worried i looked up and it said olecranon bursitis? could this be right but it's gone now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Olecrenon Bursitis is known as Popeye's elbows after the cartoon character's prominent bulge on his elbows. That is on the outside of the elbow. Inside the crease is a different matter as their are tendons, nerves, muscles, vessels running in the crease known as the antecubital fossa. A common swelling in that area is a cyst or muscle hernia. I recommend you get it examined. Ultrasounds helps.
