Hi, I just had a very similar situ with a mole on sole of my foot, I’m glad you’re booked to have it removed. I was surprised at how long the healing is taking, so just to give you a heads up! I’m 4 weeks after the removal and still unable to weight bear. They couldn’t use stitches due to the type of surgery to remove the mole, so it’s basically been on open wound/ hole in my foot about 1.5cm. I’ve had to have the wound checked and dressing changed every 4 days and now seen podiatry who were way more helpful. I’d be prepared and ask nurse/ GP to order you a waterproof shower cover as you’ll have to keep it dry. Hope that helps a bit with what to expect, I’m still waiting on results!
