Could this be melanoma or some kind of skin cancer? (Photos)

RashadsuleymanliJun 9, 2018
Please, help. I was watching a video on melanoma and I realized that I have something similar to what is described. It doesn't have weird edges or something. I don't know since when I've had this either. Please say something or I'll die thinking until the dermatologist appointment date which is in a week :( please. I also have strong depression which is made much worse by this problem. I'm talking about the dark spot in the attached photos.

I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist for after care. I recommend Silagen + Bioshield to promote healing. If there is any scarring from the scratch can be improved with lasers and microneedling/prp. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question! You will absolutely be able to walk.  You will probably need to wear shoes that have room or are completely open because you may have some discomfort with it rubbing the inside of your shoes.Hope that helps!
