A lump or bump in the skin that is _ inch or larger in diameter.
A small group of cells, a small solid mass.
a small lump of tissue that is usually abnormal; can form under the skin or protrude
A mineral mass that has a different composition or is more weathering resistant than its surrounding rock. These are normally rounded in shape. Examples include: chert masses in a limestone rock unit, pyrite masses in a coal seam, or carbonate masses in a shale. In most cases these "nodules" have formed within the rock unit or its former sediment mass. The term is also applied to rounded masses of manganese minerals that occur on some parts of the ocean floor.
Aggregate consisting of a spherical lump, usually from groups of small crystals.
A small, irregular, knobby, or rounded rock that is generally harder than the surrounding rock.
(NOJ yule): Solid deep-seated mass located in the dermis or subcutaneous tissue which produces an elevation on the skin surface. Nodules are often described as marble-like. In acne, lesions are tender, hot, and firm, and leave scars.
A lump or abnormal growth on the thyroid, whether benign or malignant.
A little round lump or swelling. A nodule may be harmless or cancerous. In cancer treatment, doctors often use the term to describe small, secondary tumours.
A rounded lump or mass of mineral.

a lump in the thyroid gland
a lump that you may feel around your thyroid
a lump that you may feel near the base of your throat
a portion of the thyroid gland which is swollen
a rounded clump of dense tissue in the lung
a smaller discreet lump in the thyroid
a solid dome or irregular shaped lesion extending to the deeper layers of the skin and inflammation is present
a solid dome-shaped or irregularly shaped lesion, characterized by pain, inflammation and extending into deeper layers of the skin
a solid, dome-shaped, or irregularly shaped lesion that can be painful
a solid mass of the skin which can be observed as an elevation or can be palpated
a swelling or lump, which can be a solid or liquid filled cyst or mass
a type of concretion with a rough and knobby surface
is a small more or less rounded body.
A well-defined, more or less round density in the lung; smaller than a mass. No rigid size distinction between a "mass" and "nodule" is possible.
The most severe form of acne lesion, a nodule is a large, deep-seated, pus-filled, often painful lump. Acne with nodules often results in permanent scarring and requires treatment by a physician. Sometimes called an acne "cyst."
small, solid, slightly raised area.
A small node that is solid and can be detected by touch.
a small lump or cluster of tissue
A large, painful acne bump that usually lasts for an extended period of time.
small more or less rounded body generally somewhat harder than the enclosing sediment or rock matrix is solid agate, jasper & chalcedony form in nodules other common minerals that occur in nodules are siderite, gypsum, calcite, quartz and barite/celestite
elevated, solid mass or lump (up to 2 cm in diameter) that can be located in the epidermis, dermis, or the subcutaneous fat
A solid or cystic elevation 1.0 cm or more, but less than 2.0 cm in diameter.
Large and usually very painful, nodules are inflamed, pus-filled lesions lodged deep within the skin. Nodules develop when the contents of a comedo have spilled into the surrounding skin and the local immune system responds, producing pus. The most severe form of acne lesion, nodules may persist for weeks or months, their contents hardening into a deep cyst. Both nodules and cysts often leave deep scars.
A lump or growth of tissue within the thyroid gland. More about this.
Small node, as of body tissue. Small knob like outgrowth, (such as a tumorous growth or a calcification near an arthritic joint). A small mass of rounded or irregular shape. The nodulus of the cerebellum
A small, solid lump that can be located by touch. Also called mass or nodule.
A large papule; small lump.
A small lump, swelling or collection of tissue, detected by touch.
a small rounded lump or protuberance (i.e., something that sticks out).
A rounded lump of mineral, found in sedimentary rocks, which easily separates from the surrounding rock.
a single lump - a localized swelling
A nodule is an enlargement of a papule in three dimensions (height, width, length). It is a solid lesion.
a small, solid lump that can be located by touch. Term is sometimes used to refer to a small tumor seen on x-ray.
A small solid collection of tissue, a nodule is palpable (can be felt). It may range in size from greater than 1.0 cm (3/8 inch) to somewhat less than 2 cm (13/16 inch) in diameter. A nodule may be present in the epidermis, dermis or subcutis (at any level in the skin). See the entire definition of Nodule
A small, solid collection of tissue that is usually benign but may interfere with the normal functioning of the organ.
A nodule in petrology or mineralogy is an irregular rounded to spherical concretion. Nodules are typically solid replacement bodies of chert or iron oxides formed during diagenesis of a sedimentary rock. Nodules may be hollow as geodes or vugs or filled with crystals and intricate geometric shrinkage patterns as in septarian nodules.
