      Anonymous, did anything more ever come of this? I have been experiencing something similar to this. Thanks!

      Thank you for this. I am concerned that the lesion would not be easily biopsied, as it is tiny and so close to bone. What type of doctor would be the one to biopsy it? I don’t think my dermatologist would feel comfortable doing that.

      and when it was really swollen, was it visibly swollen, like you could see it was swollen just by looking at it?

      oh interesting…but at half the size, was it still more swollen than the other “normal” nodes?
