The painful subcutaneous tubercle, , is generally situated, as the nameimplies, just beneath the skin, in the areolar tissue, where it is usually connectedwdth one or more very delicate nervous filaments, slightly enlarged and sur-rounded by cellulo-fibrous, fibrous, or fibro-caitilaginous matter, freely inter-spersed with corpuscles/as seen in fig. 39.
