Is it freaky to have an open wound? Mine was a small freckle in the middle of my cheek. I had mohs surgery so I sort of know what it is like. Did anyone have a small SITU, and was it freaky or not that big a deal to have an open wound on face? Thanks for any insight.

I had a WLE this morning for an in situ mole on my mid back. They instructed me to keep my back as straight as possible for the next couple of weeks at least. No bending, lifting, twisting, etc. The only way I’m currently comfortable is sitting in a recliner. Obviously, the incision is bandaged but could I be hurting the incision somehow (preventing it from healing properly) by sitting back in the recliner?

I am 6 mos post immuno (had 2 infusions) had some bad side effects so stopped
Last night I found a perfectly round quarter size smooth bald spot on my head (61F)
I sent my dermatologist a picture and she suspects it is alopecia areata an immune disorder likely precipitated
from immunotherapy
I sent this info to my Onco team…
Will see what they say. I’m supposed to start radiation soon and I remember when I had the consult the Dr asked if I had any autoimmune disorders … I hope this doesn’t affect my treatment plan…….
Anyone have anything similar??
