I noticed some paid the last two days like a scab like I hit my solder on something it looks like a rash and it's probably half the size of a penny, it hurts some what and when I picked at it all the skin was coming off now I'm freaking out :((

Sounds like a picked scab. But also, is it reddish? Does it burn/itch and is it rough to the touch? It sounds kind of like eczema, which is either caused by dry skin or an allergic reaction.

It really doesn't sound like anything to be concerned about. I had a mole once that was super itchy, growing, AND flaking off. Even that turned out to be nothing.

Doesn't sound like any form of skin cancer I've heard of, sounds like a scab maybe from a bite or you scrapped it and didn't realize. If it doesn't heal in a few weeks then I'd say see a doctor because there's many other things aside from cancer that affect the skin alot of them are benign.
