road rash and melanoma
Quote | Reply
last summer (2002), i went from 25 to zero the hard way and got some heavy duty road rash on all of the points of contact down my left side (shoulder, elbow, hip, knee and ankle).

i recovered and continued the season only to notice his past summer that i have 3 or 4 new dark moles in and around the area where the road rash turned to scar tissue. obviously the short answer here is to go see a dermatologist but I'm wondering if anyone has had similar experiences with changes to their skin after losing chunks of it.

I scar very easily so my skin changes over the years after getting pepperonis, but never noticed any propensity for moles in the areas. the most unusual thing was having a piece of gravel come to the surface 4 years later (that was one that was cleaned at the ER too).
