Hi and thanks for the query,
It is important to get this lesion well examined. It might necessary to know exactly what is going on. The cause could range from a mild allergy, inflammation or an infection at its starting face. Skin lesions are easy ton diagnose and manage, especially when well done from the beginning. I suggest you see your primary care doctor now, who might send you to the dermatologist if need be. Kind regards
