      It first appeared as a bug bite but then didnt go away after several weeks. Then it changed quickly and looked like a wart. After several more weeks and dr appts. started growing quickly and turned red and hard. Was told by dr it was nothing and would go away over time. We decided to have it removed and biopsied to be safe. Then july 23rd got the results that it was melanoma stage llb.

      It first appeared as a bug bite, then a wart, then kept growing and getting harder and protruding more and red. There is no family history of melanoma. Dr. Ross the melanoma specialist he is seeing says it is genetic as in a mutation in his chromosomes possibly but not sure.
