Yesterday my partner and I both noticed a lump on the back of my neck, that felt crusty. I had them take a look at it and take a picture so I could see, they're not really sure what is it but I'm really worried it could be skin cancer.
Here's a close up of it, http://i.imgur.com/NGLAtxC.jpg
It's probably about the size of a pencil eraser. It has irregular borders, it's pinkish and has a scab, it seemed to appear suddenly as neither of us noticed it before (if cancer fast growing).
The thing that really worries me is that it's right over my spine, if it's cancer it could grow into my spine and cause all kinds of problems.
I have another bigger scabby looking but not feeling spot on my back which is also over my spine that doctors have said probably nothing but to keep an eye on it (which doesn't seem to have changed after monitoring it for a few months)
I want to go into the doctors tomorrow but I've gone in for so much stuff that turns out to be nothing. I even just had a barium swallow because of a globus sensation and occasional bad pain in the right side of my throat.
I don't know what to do, pls halp. :(
