Question

Hardened, red elevations; no fluid is present; hard to soft; raised

Answer 1

Answer:

Papules

Explanation:

It's a Skin Lesion.

Papules are hardened red elevations of the skin where there's no fluid present. Papules or these kinds of lesions vary in size from a pinhead to the size of a pea.

The actual shape and color of a lesion may depend. The consistency may also depend. Either hard to soft or even inbetween.

Papules can persist unchanged, but they can sometimes proceed to other types of lesions.

A larger Papule is known as a Tubercle.

Example: A Pimple is an example of a papule. Or Acne.
