Believe in yourself and your ability to handle what comes your way. Taking care of a problem is a sign of strength.
This photo shows a young woman with a round, red lump on the top of her upper arm, close to the shoulder, with a small yellowish head.
It is most likely an inflamed cyst. Cysts form under the skin when a pore or hair follicle is blocked and a small sac slowly fills with keratin.
The upper arm and shoulder get a lot of friction from bag straps and clothing, which can irritate a cyst and make it swell.
As it grows, the skin over it stretches and turns red, and the lump can feel firm and sore when it is touched or pressed.
