Nodules in skin include dermatofibroma [5] and pyogenic granuloma. [6] Nodules may form on tendons and muscles in response to injury, [ 7 ] and are frequently found on vocal cords . [ 8 ] They may occur in organs such as the lung , [ 9 ] or thyroid , [ 10 ] or be a sign in other medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis .
