to ask for amateur dermatology help (extreme grossness warning)

DH noticed this just now on the sole of his foot. Freaking out. Image search brings up melanoma, obviously. GP on Monday - any thoughts reassurance in the meantime would be GREATLY appreciated. Sorry it is so so foul.

Isn't melanoma extremely rare on soles of feet because they don't see the sun?

Could it be a blood blister? My DC got one on holiday after walking around in bare feet (much smaller than this but in similar area of foot). GP wasn't sure whether it was a mole or blood blister, but it fell off after a few weeks. Obviously still recommend you seek medical advice!
