What type of lesion is characterized as a palpable, usually raised lesion greater than 1 cm?

Secondary Lesion
Primary Lesion
Vesicular Lesion
Urticarial Lesion

The correct answer is: Primary Lesion

The description given refers to a primary lesion, which is a fundamental change in structure that occurs in the skin. Primary lesions are classified based on their appearance and characteristics, with one of the defining features being their size and elevation. A palpable, usually raised lesion larger than 1 cm fits the profile of a primary lesion, such as a nodule or tumor. This classification is essential for understanding dermatological conditions because primary lesions represent the initial stage of a skin issue, allowing for better diagnosis and treatment plans. Other lesion types are defined differently; for instance, vesicular lesions refer to fluid-filled blisters, and secondary lesions typically arise from primary lesions and reflect later changes in the skin. Understanding these distinctions helps in accurate identification and management in tattoo-related practices and broader dermatological care.
