What Is The Dry Lump On The Face Which Is Crusty And Cracked?
I have a new growth on my face (about 3 months). If feels very dry, but moves around when I touch it. Part of it fell off about a month ago, bled a little, then grew back. It has almost a wart looking appearance in that it is dry, crusty and cracked. It hurts when I touch it. Not sure if it will go away on it's own or if I should see someone to remove it. 38 years old, healthy height, weight etc. Excellent health history.
