Hi, Melanoma is a skin problem that normally develops on existing moles. What you are describing are sores that may be due to Seborrhoea (Dandruf) or Furuncles (boils). I think your doctor will diagnose the problem and give you appropriate treatment. If you have dandruf, please use an over the counter effective lotion for it till your doctor arrives at a diagnosis. It is also important to rule out Diabetes if it already hasn't been done. Regards
