Hi there.
My hubby has has a sore that is not healing on top of his ear. It has been there for months, crusting, splitting, bleeding an weeping. It has what looks like a lump underneath the sore. It took a long while to get a Gp appointment but once he did, they took pictures of it and said he needed an urgent referral. He contacted the consultants secretary on two occasions, and was told no one had looked at the pictures yet. 8 weeks on, and he's been told the dermatology department can't deal with something that needs a surgical team, but no information on what it can be. Referral back to Gp, and no idea what we're are dealing with. Hubby's dad has has multiple skin cancer diagnosis, and we are quite anxious and concerned.
