Strange mark on arm..

[sunflower198]

Would you be concerned about this shiny mark on an arm?
It's about 1cm in diameter - doesn't hurt or itch.

.I checked it with the doctor and they said it was fine.SStill don't know what it is though or what causes it.

Flipping phone! It's deleted my first sentence which said: oooooh I have some like that!

@BeBraveAndBeKind thank you - I'm going to get a GP appt next week but that is good to know!

Good idea to get checked just in case. Please do come back and let me know what it is if they can put a name to it. 😊

I'd get it checked to be on the safe side but it looks like an age spot to my untrained eye

I have something very similar.
Went to the GP last year who said it was actinic keratosis- nothing to worry about but GP advised me to avoid the sun, and always use F50 sunblock / cover up in the sun.

Apparently they are extremely common, especially after 40.

Do let us know how you get on at the doctors op.
