Skin doctor: Get a referral from your family doctor to see a dermatologist. It is imperative to make sure that this is not a malignant growth.

Otolaryngologist : I am biased being this specialty, but this is definitely something we can evaluate and treat. Another option is to see a dermatologist . It likely needs a biopsy(tissue sample) and then further treatment can be planned.
