Over a year ago I had a lump in my rt. groin. Dr. treated with anitbotics and it went away after three months. This past March I had one come up in my lft. arm below my deltiod. I was sent to a surgen but a wait and see was what I was to do. Well since then I have been on antiboitics for other stuff and it has reduced this one. almost gone. Any ideas of what it is. They ran a bunch of test and found nothing.

I would think a swollen lymph node...I have a swollen one in my groin now because I'm sick.

i would say maybe see another doc and see what he says....
my mom had a couple lumps and one of them she had to get taken out but it was just benign but its definitely not something to be ignored...
take care

It's very possibly a swollen lymph node. You'll want to watch it. The lymph nodes can swell when there's infection and sometimes stay that way for quite a while.

You really need to be seen by a doctor. My besf friend has lymphoma and it started from a knot in her neck. It was a swollen lymp node that ended up being malignant. Not trying to scare you but she waited 9 months before she got it checked. I think you really need to have it checked just to be safe.
