Hi everyone
I've had this account for a while now but have been too scared to post anything here. However my health anxiety is getting so bad that I just feel so helpless and find myself often thinking that I can't live this way anymore, so I'm braving it to see if anyone has ever had anything similar.
So basically, I've always had this growth on the left side of my head. Ever since I can remember. I never really checked it so I have no idea if it changes or anything like that. I've always assumed that it is a clear mole and that I should just leave it alone. However, I looked at it today and it seems slightly red? I really can't tell if it's always been like this or not. I've never really had problems with it apart from catching it in the past and it being slightly itchy a few years back. It just doesn't seem to be a mole at all, just a brownish/reddish growth, almost like a wart. It doesn't feel as if it's got any bigger or changed in shape at all. I'm booking a doctors appointment for Monday and hopefully it's okay.
It just seems like one thing after the other though. Once I find a rational explanation for one health concern, I find another. I know it's vague but I'm just hoping someone will say they know what I'm talking about!
