I have what I think is likely a cyst or build-up of some sort of scar tissue underneath the skin on my the underside of my forearm. It's been there since college (about 15 years) but has grown from about a 1/4" to around 3/4" in diameter. I can more or less pry it around under the skin though it stays in the same location. Anyway it's become a bit obvious over the years, esp. when working out (ie. curling), and I'd like to have it removed.
I'd just go ask my GP where to go but he's just gonna charge me to look at it, then send me to another doctor who is gonna charge me again, right? Is there ONE type doctor I can go see who will tell me what it is and remove it via surgery? How much does something like this cost? It normally doesn't cause me any pain but is a little uncomfortable when working out.
I am insured.
Thanks,
Matt
