Question : I have what appears to be a blood blister on my collar bone. I got this a few months ago then it settled into what looked like a mole. Today it swelled again and is now twice the size and hurts. What can I do to relieve the pressure and have this go away.

Brief Answer:
Infected Nevus

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
presently it is looking like Nevus with inflammatory margin which is definitely not a good sign.

So in such patients I usually advise MOMETASONE FUSIDIC ACID COMBINATION cream to apply twice daily and AMOXICILLIN CLAVULANIC ACID TABLET FOR 7 days.

Following this regimen when the inflammation subside, excisional biopsy has to be done which is not only Diagnostic but therapeutic too..

Hope it helps
