Worried about melanoma (Mark on nail)

[Catherine S]

Yep, I understand all of that cakelady, but we can't and actually shouldn't, according to the forum rules that everybody ignores, hand out advice about what an undiagnosed physical problem may or may not be....there is a thread about it somewhere from admin asking people not to keep posting these photos.

The rules about this are simple really, if you're worried about anything physical see somebody professionally medically trained. If you're still feeling anxious after talking to them then talk to us. That's the difference, which not many people seem to quite understand no matter how many times admin tries to explain it.

Hope that makes it a bit clearer

Looks like you have your work cut out for you because this symptoms section is full of people wanting to talk about symptoms funnily enough......people don't ignore the rules, people want to talk about what is worrying them and receive some empathy not to be told off for getting their first post "wrong" . It can take a lot of courage for some to manage to take this step & can make you feel rather alone if the response is harsh. Just wish people could try to be kinder sometimes that's all.....xx
