Possible mole on nail? Would you go to GP?

I've had a mark on my toe nail and a friend commented on it yesterday and said I should go to the GP incase it's skin cancer. I googled it and turns out it's rare but can be.

I first noticed it about a month ago but not sure how long it's been there.

This happened to my DH. He was referred to skin cancer clinic. They removed it and it turned out just to be a spot of blood so not always bad.

You've probably just knocked it, but I would definitely go and get it checked out. Better safe than sorry.

Thanks. Should I ask to see a nurse or a doctor? Don't want to waste anyone's time!

Doctor. Nurse won't be able to refer on.

Most nurses can refer on. I certainly would refer you on. If your GPs won't allow their nurses to refer Hmm they will have access to someone who can I hope

Just wondering did you find out what it was ? I've noticed a similar mark on my toe.
