Treatment review: In general such problems require keep area clean and dry, gp should take samples to confirm its a fungal infection (which is less common than bacterial). Treatment needs to be changed accordingly.

A female asked:
Is laser mole removal effective? I want to pursue mole removal for a 2 inch oblong mole on my arm, but I am scared of surgery and getting a big scar. I want an alternative that won't leave a scar also. Does laser removal of moles really work?

I had a mole excision 6 weeks ago which caused red, raw skin around the incision. There is no infection and the incision, itself, is healed but the skin is around is still pretty red. Will it fade?

I accidentally scratched off a mole, and it didn't bleed underneath. The skin underneath is just a little red, and I'm worried about scarring?

I have a flat, non-itchy dark red spot on my ankle. It doesn't hurt either. It's about the size of a small oval pill. It's definitely not a mole or a scar. I've had it for two weeks. There is only one and I don't have any other symptoms.
