Skin concern

Would you be concerned about a small raised patch of skin on your arm that has become dry, like a flesh coloured mole not in line with the rest of your skin. I have had this checked twice and was told not a concern unless it changes which it has. I sent a picture to my GP and and was told to moisturise. I have private medical so I can go down this path but am I overthinking if GP has said it is ok. I just have a gut feeling that it is not.

I don’t think you’re over thinking, if you’ve got the private medical I think it’s a good idea to have it checked further.

GPs don’t know much about skin. I would get it checked.
