Is lesion a symptom or sign?

1 answer

A lesion is generally considered a sign rather than a symptom. In medical terminology, "signs" are objective findings that can be observed or measured by a clinician during an examination, while "symptoms" are subjective experiences reported by the patient. A lesion, which may be a wound, sore, or abnormal growth, can be visually identified and examined by a healthcare professional, thus categorizing it as a sign.
