I had mine develop 30 years ago, and I immediately went to dermatologist in area, he cut it and cauterized it. This helped buy left a little scar. Within 5 years it was back again, this time to the left side of my small scar. I had it lasered several times, helped for about 5 more years. Then I had another type of procedure done to it--I believe by another dermatologist--which helped once again for a time.
Today it is probably 4 times larger than what I started with 30 years ago. It never really bothered me until this year. I had a root canal on my bottom tooth and I guess from all the things the dentist was doing it swelled up immensely--had to ice it for 2 weeks. IT never has bled.
I want to get rid of it.. It is very noticeable. I definitely feel I need some type of surgeon to look at it. I am in NJ--willing to go to NJ-PA-NY area to an experienced doctor.
