I have a sack of fluid below my right elbow. What is it?

I fell down a few months ago, on my right side. And, I might have hit or bumped my elbow recently. Now, there is a 2 x 1 inch ball of fluid below it. I can extend and bend my elbow without pain. There is some soreness if I press on a certain spot, on the bottom of it.
It may have responded to Advil I took for my back last week but it is still there, for about 10 days.
What do you think?

Marko. you have an inflamed bursa. A bursa is a sac of fluid that is present throughout the body to prevent rubbing of 2 structures. When you hit the elbow you hit this bursa and it became inflamed. You need to see a doctor. They will aspirated,drain, the sac and place some medication in there that will keep it from returning.

It's probably some kinda blister... I suggest you go to the doctor, and he'll probably give you a prescription or just pop it .__.
