About 5 months ago I had an operation and
the next day I noticed a red burn-like
mark on my forearm about 1cm in length. I
thought perhaps I had been accidentally
pinched or burned during surgery and as it
didn't hurt I just accpepted it. It didn't
fade but then it didn't grow but the other
week I noticed another spot on my forearm
that is slightly raised and shiny with
some bruising in the surrounding skin.
This hasn't dimminished either and I have
since found a similar mark on the back of
my leg. The three spots are not painful or
broken but I'm concerned that the other
mark showed up just before I had a cold
sore (which incidentally I hit with
zovirax and was reduced before it ever had
a chance to flourish and weap).
My neck gland is slightly raised and my
face and scalp itch a bit but otherwise
I'm fine in myself.
Is this just some skin condition or do I
perhaps have something more sinister?
Many thank's in advance!

Those are symptoms of an awful lot of
things, some serious, some not. Your best
bet is to talk to your doctor.
