I have a small reddish mark that appears for a few days to a week and then disappears for several months. The mark shows up on my lower back/upper buttox. It has appeared and disappeared 3 or 4 times now. My primary care physician looked at the mark and said she does not think it is skin cancer, however she is not sure what exactly it is. Any thoughts? Perhaps I should see a dermatologist. :confused:

Could be due to friction. Get it checked anyway.. be on the safe side

I cannot make a diagnosis over the Internet. It is important that a board certified dermatologist take a look at your skin. Dermatologists diagnose skin problems quickly and effectively by noting your symptoms and checking your skin. They then give you options for proven treatments. If you have any symptoms of skin disease, see a dermatologist as soon as possible.
