A doctor has provided 1 answer

The description suggests something small and unlikely to be serious or consequential however the only way to know exactly what it is is by a biopsy. Erythema nodosum could be found at that location and it is usually a sentinel finds to something more systemic that needs to be comprehensively evaluated.
