I noticed a pea sized lump in front of my left ear?

A couple of days ago I noticed a pea sized lump in front of my left ear. It doesn’t seem to move, and is not painful. I cannot tell if it has changed in size at all. It definitely doesn’t seem to have gotten any bigger. I cannot get an appointment with my GP for a couple of weeks, and don’t know if it’s urgent enough to spend £50 on a private appointment. Thanks.

I found a lump at the bottom of my back that is small, pink and brown around the edges. What could it be? I am quite concerned as I have only just noticed this and it is not painful.

I have a pigmented spot located on the back of my thigh, should I be concerned?

Hello…I’m attaching an image of a small pigmented spot which I have, located on the back of my thigh, midway between the buttocks and knee. I noticed it when I was doing a self skin-check, although I believe I recall seeing it there quite a few years ago and looking the same as it currently does. It is light brown/ tan and slightly larger than one quarter of an inch. It is smooth. It is located in the middle of each image.

I do visit a dermatologist twice yearly for skin checks, and no concern was expressed over the spot. Do you have any idea what it could be and whether I should be concerned? Thank you!

I have a problem with my nipple/areola, it is painful and often itchy. The skin is scaly and constantly looks like a rash or something. I have been to a doctor before and came away with cream for fungal infection. The doctor was unsure though and it’s obviously still here.

Is this an ingrown hair or something more serious?

For the previous 2 days I’ve had a small pimple on my scrotum. It doesn’t hurt, leak fluid, or itch. I’ve had a past of ingrown hairs and I only wanted to confirm or a doctor to confirm this was another ingrown hair and nothing more serious. I’d appreciate any type of feedback.

I have red rashes, what can it be?

Hello, I’m writing about red rashes along one side of my butt and scrotum that I’ve had for around a week. They are painful but not severe and itchy but not as bad as a mosquito bite. You can get a better idea by looking at the photo attached. Also I’m celibate so know its not an STD, and no trauma, travel, or anything out of the ordinary has happened. Any idea whats going on? Also please respond to my email and keep confidential not posting online or to others. Thank you.
