I also have a scaly spot on the left side that seeps and forms a scab that gets thick and ocassionaly breaks off in pieces and comes loose . It will have about 15 strands of hair growing thru it. Anyone else have this problem? The constant itch is terrible to put up with. I have asked the Drs what it could be and they have all said it isn't cancer. Could it be another life long after affect??
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April. --- Passed away 5/14/14, will be greatly missed by everyone here
