Skin infection
Hello Doctor, I have a skin problem on my leg. It started as a small spot but has changed in size and color over time. Earlier it had stopped growing, but now it has started increasing again and looks slightly raised. It is not healing on its own. I am worried if it could be something serious. Can you please guide me on what it might be and what treatment I should take?
