Overview
Granuloma annulare is a skin condition that begins with red, smooth, ring-shaped lesions that can enlarge to form patches, which may be tender. The patches of granuloma annulare can occur anywhere over the body, but areas of minor trauma and constant friction, such as the backs of hands and feet, knees, and elbows are most frequently affected. What causes granuloma annulare remains unknown.
