I've already booked the GP appointment as I'm getting another issue checked out. I thought this was a pen mark but it's not. I was merely curious about it when I googled but noted skin melanoma is associated with black lines like these. I haven't hit it recently to cause trauma and it doesn't hurt.

Erm - anyone else had this?

So.

Nail is back. You wouldn't be able to tell it was surgically removed.

Got discharged from plastics/dermo team end of last year and told to call if I needed to.

But as of two weeks ago, the black line is back too.

It's small, but it's very similar to how it was when I first noticed it last year.

I've taken a photo. And am going to paint my nails to forget about it.

I will be calling the hospital in a few weeks' time.

Balls.

Hope you're ok @ImmortalityMyDarlings. At least you've spotted it straight away.
