I have a hard black dot just under my left hip on my thigh. It s not very big and I tried to get it out. but it s deep so I could not. I m almost positive that it s not a tick because it has no head, and I ve seen ticks before this doesn t quite look like it. I also tried methods of extracting ticks from skin and none of those worked. Any idea what is is?
Hi, Dear,Good Early Morning, and Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. I studied your query in details and understood your concerns.@My impression of your Hard back lump on the thigh-is as follows--Could be-Naevus /or Pigmented Mole -is melanocyte hematoma of skin and are benign tumors and could not be scraped or extracted like you did for the ticks. Treatment Suggested-a-Surgical Excision-with primary suturing would get it removed once for all.b-Laser Ablation or RFA-Radio-Frequency Ablation could be done as optional treatmentsThis would help you to plan treatment with your doctor.@Hope this would resolve your worrisome query.
