Rheumatoid nodules

Ukiah, CA

Rheumatoid nodules can they shrink or go away? I got diagnosed in December been on Prednisolone since then. Just started hydroxychloroquine last week will this help shrink them or make them worse?

I've been on several drugs since I was diagnosed in November 2020. I had a large nodule on top of my foot that went away once I found a drug that minimized my other symptoms. It does come back from time to time when I am in a flare. Hope this helps!

I have a lump under the skin by my right elbow. It is not visible, but I can feel it when I rub my arm. Could it be an Ra nodule?
