A dermatofibroma, or benign fibrous histiocytomas, is a benign nodule in the skin, typically on the legs, elbows or chest of an adult. [3] It is usually painless. [3]It usually ranges from 0.2cm to 2cm in size but larger examples have been reported. [3]
Prurigo nodularis (PN), also known as nodular prurigo, is a skin disorder characterized by pruritic , nodular lesions, which commonly appear on the trunk, arms and legs. [1] Patients often present with multiple excoriated nodules caused by chronic scratching.
Cutaneous lupus mucinosis, also known as papular and nodular mucinosis in lupus erythematosus, papular and nodular mucinosis of Gold, and papulonodular mucinosis in lupus erythematosus, is a cutaneous condition characterized by lesions that present as asymptomatic skin-colored, at times reddish, 0.5–2 cm papules and nodules.
Smaller (less than 0.5 cm) raised soft tissue bumps may be termed papules. [3] The evaluation of a skin nodule includes a description of its appearance, its location, how it feels to touch and any associated symptoms which may give clues to an underlying medical condition.
