Hi everyone :)
I posted for the first time yesterday.
I wondered if anyone could help me out. I had a mole removed 3 months ago from my back. I had it looked at by 2 different drs who said it looked fine and the second dr removed it by burning it off. I didn't have it biopsied.
Anyway, it looks like it has healed ok and is a red scar on my back. At first whilst it was healing it itched but that has since stopped and now I am getting pain in the area. Kinda like a stabbing pain. I am now driving myself mental with worrying that it was melanoma and I could kick myself for not having it biopsied. I also have an enlarged lymph node under my arm which my dr says is nothing to worry about. But obviously I am connecting the 2! My dr says the lymph node could be hormonal as I have just had copper coil fitted or could be due to the fact that I have just had tonsilitis and a chest infection.
My question is has anyone had a mole removed and had pain in the area after? I am wondering if it's just the healing as it was quite deep.
Any reasurrance would be great as I am really stressing myself out over this and snapping at my kids :blush:.
Many thanks xxxxxxx
