black spot on upper back

these are pics of a black spot I have just found on my upper back

I am a little bit worried about it as I;ve never had anything like this before

However, I have just had an outbreak of hives and I'm wondering if possibly this is just an old hive that is fading?!

Has anyone seen anything like this before?

I will be going to my GP to get it checked anyway

I don't think hives leave black marks

I'm glad you will see a doctor

But you may also have to see a skin cancer specialist too

I can't tell, either

The pictures are rather blurry so it's difficult to say. But I do recommend you see a dermatologist for any kind of skin irregularities. Of course if you have an appointment already with a GP I'm sure the GP will be able to tell you if it's something to be concerned about and then refer you to a dermatologist.

its really hard to say as the photo's are not very good.

GP is always the best first stop, as you said.

 

I just saw the mark

It almost looks like a weird bug bite or something

I would definitely get it checked out

I hope you are okay
