      I am the OP and Im here to thank everyone. It was not melanoma. At some point there was trauma to my bigtoe and before it was able to heal a bacterial infection set in that prevented the trauma from healing. 

      This is a great community full of awesome people, God Bless all of you.

      Thanks for the reply. I speed walk and do moderate weight lifting that might be the cause. I will just have to bite the bullet and take the expense of seeing the doctor.

      I was hoping someone could look at it and tell me it was definitely not melanoma. I worked for a comapny that supplied parts to some of the factories that GM has closed and is planning to close. As a result of that I was laid off and was hoping to avoid the expense of a doctors visit.
