Are there any dermatologists here by practice? I'm asking for a request to look at about 5 pictures and tell me what you see. Please PM me or bump this thread, I'd like to keep it private. And please, serious people only.

I might go see my doc tomorrow but I dunno if I'll have time with classes. It's nothing serious (I think I know what it is) but I'd like a second opinion. This also goes against a couple AT rules so it has to be done via PM.

Well there's pilots here so I figured there might be a dermo out of the 100k+ ATers. Oh well *shrugs*.

Well, can you at least give us a hint on the medical problem at hand? Cuz we might be able to throw some sites/information in your direction.

Not a dermatologist, but I have taken a couple med classes and some other medical related sort of things...why don't you just post the pics, and see if anyone might have had something similar? Or is it a thumb-sized wart on your wang, or something equally nasty? ;)

I looked at the sites, I think I know what it might be but it doesn't make much sense.

Ok, since you asked, it *slightly* resembles a mild condition of molluscum, but there are inconsistencies. For instance, I don't have a weak immune system; I haven't had a cold for almost 2 years and am one of the healthiest people. Furthermore, I said it *slightly* resembles it. There are a few other things I can't mention in public.

No, it's nothing equally nasty, not even close. But it's not a G-rated pic.
