Sentence/Example of Papule:

In the venereal disease the local trouble commences as a papule and breaks into an ulcer without having formed a pustule.

The disease pursues a regular course of papule, pustule, and sore; and is said never to recur.

Involution is marked by cessation of oozing, subsidence of the papule and scar-like changes at the site of the lesion.

This papule increases in superficial area, but not in height, and gradually loses its redness.

Slight exudation of plasma, with a few corpuscles, usually follows, and produces elevation of the papule itself.
