10 Neurofibromatosis Symptoms
Symptom #9: Skin Bumps
As the name of the condition suggests, patients with neurofibromatosis develop tumors that arise from the nervous system. These neurofibromas can be visible on the skin and appear as small bumps that can be the size of a pencil eraser or mosquito bite.
Younger patients have few neurofibromas as the numbers may not be significant until they reach puberty. While some only have a few small neurofibromas, there are also others who can be covered with thousands.
