A firm bump appeared on my elbow two weeks ago. Hurt on day one, itched on day two, then rose and stayed painless. It's pearly or slightly red depending on the day, took a photo with cheap microscope lens. Should I have it removed?
After working out at home WHILE STANDING UP my elbow started hurting. At first I thought I have injured it, but on day two the pain turned into itching. On day three a painless, firm bump appeared. Sometimes it's pearly, sometimes a bit red.
Decided to investigate with a cheap microscope lens:
Photo 1 is after 3 days
Photo 2 is after two weeks
Photo 3 is just different focal point to show the "on-the-bump" skin texture
I've had many pimples, blisters, but this thing somehow is worrying me. Is it contagious?
Should I leave it be? Have it removed?
