I have a large lump on my left arm where it bends, it is hard and painful. Had a doctor say it was soft and said it was nothing to worry about, now I am getting another one on the other side and am in terrible pain, in hands , wrists, elbow, etc, what do I do. I know that it is growing pretty fast. what kind of doc should I see for a second opinion ?
