Feeling hard bumps or lumps under the skin is something many people with fibromyalgia experience. Members of MyFibroTeam have described them in some pretty creative ways — like gravel or frozen peas under the skin. You're definitely not alone in noticing this!

These lumps tend to show up in areas like the upper arms, legs, and abdomen, and can sometimes be tender or painful to the touch. While the exact cause isn't fully understood, these bumps are a commonly discussed fibromyalgia symptom. It's always a good idea to mention any new or changing lumps to your doctor, just to rule out anything else and get proper guidance.

Some things worth telling your doctor include:

- Where the lumps are located
- Whether they are painful or tender
- If they've changed in size or number
- How long you've had them
