A member asked:

I have the bruises on my legs that resemble erythema nodosum and i tested negative for sarcoidosis. should i still have a biopsy to rule out erythema and possibly answer the question of what exactly is wrong with me? i've been tested for lupus and tb. bo

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Easy does it: As often as not, erythema nodosum appears for no reason whatever and goes away after a while. If you feel well otherwise, and are hepatitis c negative, and it was not precipitated by medication, and your physician is okay with just watching it for a few weeks, that's probably fine.
