black mark removal - #19732

Sia

I am worried and could really use some advice about black mark removal. A couple weeks ago, I noticed this weird black mark on my arm and at first, I thought it was just dirt or something, but it wouldn’t come off! It kind of looks like a mole, but it's different, and now I can’t stop thinking about it. My mom has always told me that changes in skin like this could mean something – I don’t know what. So yesterday, I made an appointment with a dermatologist, but I'm still feeling all anxious about it. I mean, what if it’s something serious? I even tried some home remedies for black mark removal like lemon juice, but nothing has worked so far. I read online that some treatments might actually make it worse, like using certain acids or whatever. It’s really hard to tell what's legit info about black mark removal and what’s just made up, you know? Has anyone else had a similar experience? Should I just wait for my appointment or is there something I can do before then? Just feeling a bit overwhelmed with this and could really use some help on how to approach black mark removal properly!
