Tick bite?

[Mollypolly2610]

Saw an earlier thread and I got this a couple of weeks ago on the back of my calf. My DH keeps commenting on it and took a picture of it tonight.

It hard a hard white skin on top which I picked off last night (!). I’ve been putting bepanthen on it and fucicide but it just won’t go away.

Do you think it’s a tick bite?

What about it makes you think it is a tick bite ?

Where have you been lately?

It doesnt look particularly ticky ...

This is my tick bite ...

@Mollypolly2610 - is there anything still in it?

@IfOnlyOurEyesSawSouls -
Presumably you’ve had treatment?

IfOnlyOurEyesSawSouls You’ve been prescribed Doxycycline?

@Mollypolly2610 it doesn't look like a tick bite to me.
In my experience, ticks tend to stay on the skin if they bite, so you would probably know you were bitten by a tick, because you would see it - and have to remove it. It could happen that it bit you and fell off, but that's unlikely.

Could it be a wart on my leg then? I just can’t get rid of it.

Does it hurt to touch? Looks like when I had a boil type spot in my leg!

It doesn’t hurt I’ve been picking at it for a couple of weeks it looked like a wart I eventually got the hard tip of last night and it looks like a big hole. It’s so unsightly, but not sore.

It looks like a small spot that you say you haven't left alone, of course it's not going to go away if you keep picking at it
