So... I went to have my nails done last night... I normally gel my own but as they were brittle and short I thought I'd have acrylics rather than doing my own false nails...
The nail tech noticed on my little finger that I have a line that in my "non professional" opinion I thought was an area where I had over filed...
She wasn't convinced tho as it runs vertical from cuticle to free edge... it's pink and appears darker when the finger pad is pressed... it is on the "ridge" of finger nail...
She seemed pretty concerned that I get it checked but given that it was late on a Friday I googled instead... now I'm absolutely terrified!!
It doesn't look like any of the melanoma pics... it looks like an area of over filing but just so happens to be in a line rather than a patch...
Can any one offer any advice please??
I am going to call the doctors but won't be able to get in for a few days... I've already had one sleepless night!
Thanks in advance xxx
