    Looking for advice:  I have a pretty big scar on my inner thigh had a WLE aprox 7 yrs ago melanoma, ulcerated and vertical growth.  Surgery success margins clear, SLND clear.  

    2 yrs ago I had 3 other WLE – margins clear and only one Melanoma.

    However, my first WLE was the biggest and now it is so tender to the touch the area is very tender and hurts, also has a blueish/purple spot on it.  I thought maybe it’s a vein but it is to tender and just laying in bed it bothers me.  Any of you had this happen?  

    God bless you all – and please keep up this support system

      Haven't had this happen but please have it checked out ASAP.  I had an abnormal mole biopsied and removed twelve years ago, clear margins and then 2 years ago out of the blue was stage IV.  

      Good wishes to you,

      Jennifer
