I have tender lesion on shin for so many years. Please explain my biopsy report.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. I have through your history and medical reports. In my opinion, the details provided fit into a condition called erythema nodosum. However, there is a possibility of deep fungal infection of skin. Erythema nodosum is a condition, wherein there occurs a reaction in the fat tissue beneath your skin. The reason for such a reaction could be many but is clearly not known. Major ones would be an infection anywhere else in the body. Intake of oral contraceptive pills or a few other medications in the past, history of tuberculosis, sometimes pregnancy, and so on. Symptoms occur in a repeating fashion and seen commonly in young women. You may also have a fever during the episode. With treatment, the condition usually remits but recurrence depends on the identification of the underlying cause and its treatment. It requires a thorough clinical and systemic examination to rule out the causes along with prescription-based immunosuppressive medications under medical monitoring.
