Hi
This is probably swollen lymph nodes from sacroidosis , also if she is on corticosteroids then she can have pumps like this all over, If I am here doctor I would not focus on this , instead I would focus on the bigger issues
Good Luck
Most probably these are because of corticosteroids however not the matter of concern .
Hi..
Sarcoidosis can cause formation of lumps or granulomas or it can involve the lymph nodes..
If she has any symptoms like pain then painkillers can help but should be taken only under consent with her doctor as she already has renal failure.
Also a biopsy can be do e if further confirmation is needed..
Can you also tell that these bumps appeared suddenly or gradually?
Are they painful?
Please revert back..
Regards..
