What Causes Raised Pink Spot On Thigh?

I have a shiny pink spot less than one centimeter wide on my thigh that I first noticed two weeks ago It is raised but so slightly I can t tell by looking, I have to feel it with my finger and even then I can barely tell. It doesn t itch or hurt at all and it is not hard or scaly. Hydrocortisone makes it feel numb for a few seconds, but it does not go away and it has gotten something bigger. It does not cause any discomfort at all. Should I be concerned?

Hi,

As there is increase in the size of the spot I suggest you to take
1. Biopsy test of the spot and complete blood count test
2. Consult the dermatologist for further ruling out of the disease and Treatment

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
