Looks for some guidance/advice on this lesion.. 34 yo male with HX of htn, paroxysmal AFib, OSA w/CPAP, and depression. They noticed this dark spot on the ventral aspect of the L great toe ~2 months ago. They have been monitoring it thinking it was a bruise but has not changed. No known injuries/trauma. The first photo is a collage of the left image from around two months ago and the right side shows current. I have also attached a dermatoscopic image as well as a furrow ink test image. It is asymptomatic. He has no other known history with cancers. I am I wonder about an acral nevus but concerned about is being an acral melanoma with the pigment looking to run parallel along the ridges. Likely will have biopsied. Just wondering what the community thinks about the images. If it is melanoma and it's at least 2 months old (could be a bit older but didn't notice it), is there much risk for metastasis? Thanks!
