I have had a mark on my shin for 3 years and seen doctors in the past as I was concerned.

One doctor mentioned bowens disease and gave me some cream which did not work.

A few months later another mark appeared on my left shin and again I was told there was nothing to worry about.

Over the last year the mark on my right shin turned into an open sore which kept healing and opening back up again.

Went to the doctors to be told it was irritated and needed cream.

After sending pictures of both shins to another doctor during a telephone appointment I was told I needed to see a dermatologist.

I went privately as did not want to wait and was told I needed biopsies on both shins as he feels the right one is a concern.

I am scared that the result will come back as a skin cancer as the bowens has been there 3 years.

Anyone gone through a similar experience?
