Is this a wart?
 

I've tried getting an appointment at the docs, next one is late October, so I'll turn to the mighty .org and the communal wisdom we hold.

Simply put, is this a wart?

It's about 6-7 mm across and stands 1-2mm proud. I started off with a small red mark that would scratch off and bleed a bit and it's progressed to this over about 4-5 months. Not painful at all.

It's on my achilles tendon, half way between the ankle bone and the bottom of my calf muscle.

Cheers! Sorry if I put anyone off their dinner...

Yep. Stop scratching it and get some buzuka or other treatment.Another ideally, split a bean, drawing blood from the wart and putting it on one of the halves, and burying that half at a crossroads at midnight.
You might want to be playing some Eric Clapton for that to work.....

Ewwwww, have you been riding Hondas again?

Deserve all you get!

Go and see your local chemist, it looks quite warty and they can give you some salicylic acid.

Kill it, kill it with fire.

Dr. Red Herring sat next to me says it probably is.... however she say she won't say for sure without seeing you in the flesh...... and that just isn't going to happen!

its the incubation chamber of a larvae. the insect will be under the skin and possibly in the flesh and secretes chemicals so it can transform to hatch out the flesh at which point it will eat its way out. have you been walking in ferns a week or so before you seen the spot appearing?




















if you believe that then hahahaaaaa.
