Hi and thanks for your question,
I sore thathas been there for this long is worth examining and having a close look. Depending on whether it is painful or not, has a discharge or not, type or color of discharge or content if any, associated lymph nodes or node and mode of presentation will have different interpretations.
I suggest you XXXXXXX your family physician for a proper clinical evaluation. Having a histologic examination with a histopathologist (anatomopathologist) could be important to exclude a skin tumour or carcinoma. But it shall really be rare for that s not the common localization of these tumours.
However, a critical look by your physician and a few exams could be important for diagnosis or reassurance.
thanks and best regards,
Luchuo, MD.
