Question: I noticed last wed what appeared to be a rug burn type injury on my right arm in the left crease of my elbow. When I touched it the skin just peeled off. It then scabbed brown/ orange and thought it was healing. Last night I noticed it seemed to be redder and slightly raised with slight flaky patches of white skin. However, the redness has become more pink in 24 hours but it seems to have a slight burn to it as does my arm. I was in the sun yesterday for about an hour and am slightly burned. It is about 2 centimeters wide and tall and circular in shape. It was not previously a mole or anything. Just normal skin. It feels raised but I can't tell if its new skin growth or a raised bump. It's more flat raised if that makes sense, ie raised the same amount through out circular spot. Never had anything like this and don't understand the irratation. Please help.

I also had sex with my girlfriend a lot this past weekend as she was in town. Was thinking the sheets may have caused some type of irritation to it but now it seems to look different than it did. I have cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and used neosporin a couple of times. Had athlethes foot last week and used tinactin and the athletes foot went away after one application. Tonight, Tuesday I sprayed the spot on my arm with it (tinactin) as well. Please advise if this was a bad idea. Wanted you to have all info so you can give me most accurate response.

It has never had puss and appears to have a shiny type skin growing in the middle. The edges have had white flaky skin. As the color has improved it seems to have risen higher as circumference has become smaller. Remember when I first noticed it, thought it was a rug burn. It actually scabbed like anything normal and then over the past 24-48 hours, it appears to be more raised and raw even though color has improved. Did the picture upload? Should I put XXXXXXX cidar vinegar on it?
