Dermatologist 's  Response
Welcome!
thanks for the question
I would be pleased to answer your question .

I would recommend that she takes an intralesional steroid injection into the bump .
She mostly has a Fibrosed Nodule .

She will need to take the medication / injection from the Dermatologist .

It will shrink with the help of the anti inflammatory injection .

Thanks and Take care
