Small sore on back of leg started as red now is skin color and dry but not healing since 5-2012 . should i see dr.?

Sores do not heal: What are the warning signs of skin cancer? Sores that will not heal. Sores that grow bigger or turn into tumours. Sores or tumours in or around the orifices should be watched carefully as these can behave aggressively. See your doctor for a diagnosis.
