Hi Wave 

I have previously had melanoma’s  - 2a treated with WLE and SLNB, then a 1a treated with WLE. One on each leg. I am very grateful that I am still under observation as I now have an odd mole on the inside of a toe which I’m having biopsied this week.
Has anyone had a toe biopsy who can give me some information about healing time and mobility? I understand it’s going to be quite uncomfortable.I am of course concerned about results too, but am trying to think one step at a time and prepare for post biopsy. Any advice and tips welcome. 

Thanks in advance

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to our corner of the online community.

    My melanoma wasn't on my toe but there are lots of people here who have had a biopsy on their toes. Clicking here will take you to posts which mention toes and you could drop a reply to any of the more recent posters if you wanted to ask further questions.

    All the best for this week
