Marked interface pattern, with hydropic degeneartion of basal layer, many colloid bodies and apoptotic cells. Marked extravastion of red cells and dermal odema. Epidemotropism is present. Wedge shapped inflamtion into the dermis with small angulated lymphocytes and larger cells. Few mast cells. I was thinking about Lymphomatoid papulosis or pityriasis lichenoides maybe? but would like a bit more history or CPC before I would be making one of those diagnoses.

Agree with the above DDx and CPC is important. Also insect bite reaction can be included

Looks reactive. First impression arthropod reaction. Looks folliculocentric that can happen with arthropods but would do some levels for folliculitis.

Besides an insect bite reaction I would like to suggest persistent scabietic nodules as a possibility.

Wedge shape infiltrate, chiefly lymphocytes, with vacuolar alteration of the basal layer and extravasation of erythrocytes in the epidermis make me think of Mucha-Habermann disease.
