should I go to the doctors

I have a pimple like spot on the back of my shoulder. I have had it for years. It looks like a pimple that never goes away. Big red pimple. Would you go to the doctor to have it checked out?

If it was me... I'd only go specifically for that if I've noticed it change shape, size or color at all. Otherwise I would wait until the next time I was there and just point it out and ask it it's anything to worry about. Sometimes red moles need to be watched but the usual rule of thumb is as long as color/shape/size haven't changed than everything should be fine.

But everyone is different and if it would give you peace of mind then go!

I just looked at it online and i am pretty sure its a Sebaceous cyst. So I think i will go in and have the the doctor look at it to make sure and see what they can do.

Yeah I have to go to the doctors for a cold so i am def gonna have the doc look at it.

Got ya. Yeah, if it's a cyst that's a little different of a situation. They can drain it or tell you how to care for it.

If it's a cyst it should be pretty easy to take care of. Unless it's within the bone. I've had to have a cyst surgically removed from a bone before, so better to be safe than sorry. And since you have to go in anyway it wouldn't hurt to have it looked at.
