Ask your doctor about Erythema Nodosum. Erythema nodosum is a type of skin inflammation that is located in a certain portion of the fatty layer of skin. Erythema nodosum (also called EN) results in reddish, painful, tender lumps most commonly located in the front of the legs below the knees. The tender lumps, or nodules, of erythema nodosum range in size from 1 to 5 centimeters. The nodular swelling is caused by a special pattern of inflammation in the fatty layer of skin. Erythema nodosum can be self-limited and resolve on its own in three to six weeks. Upon resolution, it may leave only a temporary bruised appearance or leave a chronic indentation in the skin where the fatty layer has been injured.


What is a hard lump on your skin?

There are all sorts of lumps in your skin. They can be mosquito bites, goosebumps, warts, zits, and many other types of diseases. If you have a lot of lumps in your skin and are pretty small, they can probably be a goosebump. Sometimes, chicken pox can be formed into a lump. Chicken pox is red, so I'm not assuming you have chicken pox. I am assuming you have goosebumps. You get goosebumps when you are cold. If those lumps are itchy, it's probably a mosquito bite. If it's not, sadly it's probably a wart, zit, or something in a different type of lump. Hopefully this helped!

Is getting lumps on your body healthy?

That depends. Some lumps on the body can be signs of bad things going on inside the body; for example, some cancers manifest themselves as lumps on the skin. Still, even if a lump like that appears on your skin, it isn't necessarily bad. Some could just be moles or pimples or other benign lumps on the skin.
