I'm upset with my results and need answers! The test came back and it was a fibrous papule & my dermatologist said it the type that will grow bigger by shave excision, and I need to have it completely removed (with stitches) she had referred me to a ENT doctor. I'm scared and don't know what to do at this point! I should have left the bump alone by now I have to deal with the consequences.
