What disease is dermatofibroma

summary

People's skin is the first line of defense in the body, which can effectively block external damage to the body, but also suffer from dermatofibroma. Let's share the common problem of what is dermatofibroma!

What disease is dermatofibroma

First of all, dermatofibroma is a benign dermal tumor caused by focal proliferation of fibroblasts or histiocytes. The disease can occur at any age, more common in young and middle-aged, more women than men. It can occur naturally or after trauma. Yellowish brown or reddish intradermal papules or nodules are the clinical features of the disease. The lesions grow slowly, exist for a long time, and rarely subside spontaneously.

Then it is more common in the extensor side of the limbs, and can also be seen in other parts. The lesions showed round or oval papules or nodules, about 1cm in diameter, usually less than 2cm, occasionally 2cm or more. Uplift, hard, base can push, but connected with epidermis.

Finally, the skin on the surface is smooth or rough, with different shades of color. It can be normal skin color, or yellowish brown, dark brown or light red. It is more common in young and middle-aged people. Children generally don't suffer from it, but women are easy to suffer from it. Skin lesions often persist, and a few subside spontaneously after several years. Usually no conscious symptoms, occasionally mild pain. Generally single, occasionally or multiple.

matters needing attention

When people with dermatofibroma take a bath, they should not take a bath with a towel. They should pay attention to eating some fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid strenuous exercise, such as lifting heavy objects, lifting arms, and expanding chest movements, so as to prevent wound dehiscence or infection.
