Anyone Have Tender Lumps Under Skin?
I have developed these near my elbows and on my Right hand. They are most tender when joint pain is at its peak. Dr said lumps are not normal but I have read they are. Has anyone else had sudden onset of such tender lumps?

My lumps have gone down so much since I have started the prednisone and methotrexate. So weird.
