I woke up this morning, and noticed a black mark on my left arm, just before the elbow. I disregarded it, thinking it may have been an odd marker swipe from work or maybe some sort of paint i had grazed across. Possibly a scrape from tree while fishing the local creek.
After trying to scrub it off in the shower, to little avail, i went about my day. At work, i tried scratching it off and noticed that the skin under the black mark looked as if it had been burnt.
I stopped scratching it, and throughout the evening the black mark had faded and scraped away, but now i have a scar that looks similar to a chemical burn where the black mark was. This certainly wasnt like this yesterday. I had been fishing, and i thought maybe some sort of bug, or plant may have caused this, but I can't find anything similar to this on the web. The scar looks as if it were a scar from a serious burn , but i have never seriously burnt myself.
No pain experienced whatsoever, no skin sensitivity or anything. Wasn't there yesterday, now there's a huge scar.
A little confused, and very worried. Please, any (helpful) input would be appreciated.
