A member asked:

I have a discolored, hard, and somewhat itchy, pea sized bump on my back that has been there for about two months or so. what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cyst : It could be a sebaceous cyst, seborrheic keratosis, granuloma. It could also be a basal cell carcinoma. Please seek the advice of a dermatologist who will also likely remove it.
