    Melanoma of the nail is rare, the the lines from melanoma are vertical and not horizontal.

    So I went to the Doctor just to make sure it's not Melanoma she said it definitely dosen't look like Melanoma and is a Hemorrhage. I felt good but 3 days later I'm questioning what if shes wrong?

    It’s the nature of anxiety to question a result. But she’s the professional and you aren’t. You have to believe her opinion.
    If anything changes then go back, but otherwise, drop it. You’re fine.
