Watch it close...: Sometimes, it's just a freckle. A sudden change in color, size of texture should certainly cause you to have it evaluated. But remember, sometimes it's jut a freckle.

Question 3

hi, 
a small sized freckle recently appeared on the tip of my toe and hurts to touch a bit! it's dark in colour
should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Freckle: Most likely the spot is of a vascular origin. But if it hurts, it is either due to a recent injury or  bite or something that might be of a systemic etiology like a septic embolism . You should see your doctor or a dermatologist to have the spot evaluated. It is easier to make a diagnosis if the lesion is fresh rather than waiting weeks before you have it seen.

Question 4

i have a tiny freckle-like dots under my toe. it hurts when walking. i just got a pedicure yesterday, could it be from that?

Changes in skin: coloration should be examined by a Podiatrist for proper diagnosis and treatment if needed.  It would be unlikely to have any athletes feet/foot fungus appear one day after a pedicure.
