A member asked:
Ive had a reddish/brownish bump on my shin for a few years. today, i noticed there is a circular bruise around the bump. it doesnt hurt. wondering what this could be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is likely benign, especially only one. It should resolve in the next couple days and I doubt you need to see a doctor for it.
