Small bump after a wound?!


Question:

Small bump after a wound?

I recently got bitten a little dog. One of my wounds my skin was lifted a little. Its has been healing ok and although it closed, I was left with a small bump. Will that eventually go away? Its not that bad but it looks like a zit.


Answers:

It may not. It could be a dermatofibroma, which forms after a small trauma. It can be easily removed by a dermatologist although it's considered cosmetic and insurance won't pay for the removal. Just wait and see though. It may still be healing.
