Go to the md and get it checked out. That's the only way to find out.

Two things: 1) make an appointment with a dermatologist. It’s treatable. And 2) Stay off the Internet looking for diagnoses. That’s what all my doctors have told me. I know because last year I had an intestinal infection. Everywhere on the Internet told me I have cancer. I was totally freaked out. Finally went to my doctor. It was treated with an antibiotic. And he too lectured me to stay off the Internet when it comes to playing MD. Good luck. And I’m sure a dermatologist can help resolve it.

If it makes you feel any better, I have about 20 of those. My back looks like a chocolate chip cookie. I have my doc check them all once a year. He just did it 2 months ago, and all is fine.

Please don't Google any symptom! Take any health concern to a doctor, and let him or her evaluate you.

I agree with MrZee.

A couple months ago I had two new spots that I had noticed look different than my others. I was convinced i had skin cancer too. I made an appointment with dermatologist and was told they were completely normal and healthy! I felt so silly! I did all that worrying for nothing. Make an appointment to get checked out so you can put your mind at ease

Thank you all for your kind helpful replies I apologise that it’s such a silly worry

It's not a 'silly worry' if it concerns you, but perhaps health anxiety? Like the others said get it checked out by a doctor if you are worried. x

Hello. No need to apologize. I can relate to your fear. It’s real. I get them and many others too get them when something seems out of place on or in our bodies. I think a dermatologist will take good care of you and you’ll be all set to go.

Best,
