Hi,
on the 1st December I noticed a mole had turned Black and was slightly raised (I can’t be 100% sure if it was a mole or new lesion).
I sent an e-consult form to my GP with a photograph of the mole. I was asked to attend an appointment. The GP examined the mole and took some photographs using Telederm technology. The photos were reviewed by a Dermatologist and I was then referred for an urgent appointment with a Dermatologist for suspected skin cancer.
I attended the appointment today, I was literally in for a minute. The Dermatologist took a 1 second look at the mole and told me it was a blood blister. I wasn’t asked any questions and I was quickly discharged.
Blood blisters are Red and clear up on their own within 2 weeks. My apparent blood blister started off Black with crust and has continued to grow and change in colour and is showing no signs of fading.
I’m not convinced that it is a blood blister so have since sent another e-consult to my GP explaining my experience and have attached images showing how the mole has changed.
Am I right in asking for a second opinion? Thanks
