Need help identifying a growth on my neck
Hello everyone,
I am a fairly healthy 27 YOM with no medical history. About two months ago, I noticed a raised area on the back of my neck. I picked it open assuming it was acne, but it still has not healed. After two months, it is now a dime-sized growth that bleeds with the slightest manipulation. Please see the attached photos. I am hoping someone here knows what this is and has an idea of what to do about it.
Thank you!
Chris.

Hi, I tried to look at it but couldn't get it to show. My suggestion is to get to a dermatologist. If you've ever had sunburn there and if you're fair skinned, you really don't want to just wait and see. Get it checked.
