  7. I HAD A BASAL CELL REMOVED...

I had a basal cell removed on the side of my nose by Mohs surgery on Sept 26th. Should it still be tender to touch?

Asked By:Scarlmel in Apple Valley, CA

It is tender to touch and has a blue line across the top of my nose where the incision was made. Is this common after this period of time?
