I felt a hard lump inside my arm

The arm is a part that people often use in daily life, and unlike other parts of the human body, the arm is not easy to observe. Because the arm is often used, people often observe the health of their arms. So some people find a lump in their arms when observing them, and it feels hard to touch. So what causes this hard lump? Let me explain this to you next.

This is a skin and soft tissue infection.

This is a common disease with a high incidence rate clinically. Some cases can be cured with simple treatment, but some cases progress rapidly and, without timely treatment, lead to multiple organ failure and eventually death.

The onset of this disease is related to the patient's general condition and the ability of the pathogenic bacteria. First, if the patient suffers from diseases such as tumors and diabetes, and uses some immunosuppressants for a long time, which leads to low immunity and is prone to infection by pathogenic bacteria, the chance of getting sick is much greater than that of ordinary people. Second, the living environment is relatively poor, such as dense population and poor sanitary conditions, and long-term contact with animals, such as cats and dogs, which have some pathogenic bacteria that can cause infection in patients. Third, when the patient's skin barrier is damaged, such as by trauma, burns, bites, etc., the invasion of pathogenic bacteria will also cause infection of the subcutaneous soft tissue.

For the treatment of this disease, antibiotics are generally used, with intravenous infusion in the early stage, which has a quick effect. In the later stage, some antibiotics can be taken orally. For this patient in the outpatient clinic, the lump was gradually reduced and all vital signs were stable, which was a sign of gradual recovery, so oral medication was used. If the condition is severe, surgery is the only treatment.

The following nursing measures should be taken for patients:

1. Improve the body's immunity. Low immunity can lead to the invasion of pathogens. Strengthen physical exercise on a regular basis. For patients with other diseases, some immune enhancers can also be used.

2. Protect the skin's barrier function. Under normal conditions, the skin can prevent the invasion of bacteria, so you should pay attention to hygiene, take a bath frequently, and try to avoid trauma or other injuries. Once there is some skin damage, go to the hospital for treatment in time.

3. To avoid infection from patients with this disease, you should use separate bath towels, bath towels, and towels in public places at home, and sterilize any contaminants you have come into contact with.

4. Patients should not have psychological burdens. With the continuous development of medical technology, many diseases can be cured. Do not have psychological pressure and enhance your confidence in curing the disease.
