Lump in vein05/22/2008 |
My husband has a lump on a vein in his right forearm. He is concerned it is a clot. Could it be a clot? Or something else? It has been there for a few days now. It does go away if he holds his arm in the air for a little bit.
Hello. This is likely just a valve and very common. A clot would not go away with elevation of the arm.
