Bah! So approximately 4.5 months I had two moles removed from my back by a plastic surgeon (excised with dissolvable stitches). The dr who referred me to him and the surgeon both said the moles were benign and therefore they weren't biopsied. Well after a couple of months, the area where I had the lower back mole removed still wasn't healed well. It was reddish and still scabbed. 3 months later! It almost felt like there was a bump there; a stitch or scar tissue or something under the skin. I went back to the surgeon and he said it wasn't infected and could just take a long time to heal. But of course I picked at it and now 4.5 months it still hasn't healed well. Now I'm panicked it was skin cancer and was never biopsied. I'm so worried. Has anyone else had a wound that just wouldn't heal well? Or took months to heal?
