Hello, I was diagnosed with melanoma at age 23. It was superficial spreading melanoma INSITU. Was removed by specialist Professor John Thompson RPA. Anyway 12 years on the scar was itchy and been sore. I just noticed a large protruding lump today at the site of the scar about size of large marble. Im yet to see a GP. I'll be seeing one tomorrow.
Its just strange that a lump appears all of a sudden and right near melanoma scar. Im concerned that it may be reoccurring melanoma. Has anyone experienced this? What tests can be done? Thank you.
