Dermatofibromas
These are firm, benign nodules that often develop in response to minor skin injuries, like insect bites. They’re commonly found on the arms and legs and may persist for years.
Dermatofibromas vary in color—from pink or red to brown—and usually measure about ¼ to ½ inch across, though they can grow larger. When pinched, they may create a dimple in the skin, a classic sign of this condition.
Treatment:
These are harmless and don’t require treatment unless they cause discomfort or cosmetic concerns. If necessary, they can be removed with minor surgery.
