What's this spot? A bit worried

I've had a hard, slightly scaly Spot near my collar bone for over a year, a bit bothersome to look at but it never came to anything. Now it's itchy and I scratched half asleep this morning and it's really sore. I've made a doctors appointment for next Friday (v unlike me, I have to be at deaths door befor I bother a doctor!)
But it's playing on my mind a lot, I'm v fair skinned and have had a Fair bit of sunburn thereabouts over the years (now over 50)
I did suppose the pic tells much, it's clear on top, a bit red underneath, almost looks like it has a root? And itches in the past week or so

seborrheic keratosis? Mine sometimes itch.

That might make sense, I have solar keratosis on my face which has been treated (last time horrifically).
It's the sun damage element that worries me, I'm scared of it being cancer
