Hi doctor,
I am seeking a second opinion on an issue. Recently, a doctor at a skin cancer clinic observed my hands and arms and noticed sunspots on my hands. I have something similar on my right inner forearm. In the past, I have noticed a spot growing adjacent to this. Another, dermatologist felt this was due to the lotions I have been using. I do have sensitive skin prone to rashes and breakouts and so, he recommended to stop using lotions. What is your opinion here?

Hi doctor,
Thank you for your answer and will follow your advice. Could I ask your opinion on another lesion? My doctor did have a look at this recently as a small bump appeared on it. She felt it was a pimple. This is on my foot and it does not itch.

Hi doctor,
Yes, I will send the photos. The lesion was similar to sunspot that had been on my foot for some time. Now, the pimple has flattened. The redness to the side has just happened, maybe from aggravating it.
