I hope you find our interaction helpful. If you are satisfied with my response(s) please remember to press the ACCEPT button.

Ok no problem. I would most certainly advise you to have it looked at and possibly biopsied. Patients with a history of melanoma are at a higher risk of developing new ones and any new pigmentary lesion should not be ta***** *****ghtly.
