Marks in scar

I had a mole removed five weeks ago by excision. Stitches were removed on day ten. Today I noticed two grey/black lines in the scar that don’t fade when pressed! Should I be worried? My HA tells me melanoma! Sorry the photo isn’t clear, but the two marks are on the top left hand side

Can't see anything sorry.

Maybe for reassurance see the nurse at your GP practice and ask them to look at it.

I don't think anyone here can give you an accurate answer as to how the scar "should" look, but nothing in that photo looks like melanoma to me.

Haven't you got follow-up appointment with doc? Maybe you should speak to your GP if not.

Thank you for your help. They were “footprints of stitches” ☺️
