Well, you were smart to get to the doctor first. Nothing bad will happen in a week. Pea size I wonder. I had one on my elbow but it was bigger and several of my doctors said it was nothing. It was the same thing; only sore if I pushed it. One of my doctors said "Don't push it".......lol
She probably wants you in the hospital to do a biopsy is all. That's what they normally do is draw any fluid out and test it.
It might be Bursitis. That's very common in the elbow region. That's what mine was and they didn't treat it at all. It went down by itself. You have the symptoms of it but it's not very big so I'm not sure. It's also called "Popeye's Elbow".
Let me know after your next doctors appointment.
