Pencil mark?

0 ⤊

Like in 8th grade, I usually kept pencils in my pocket, and one day it stabbed me and the tip broke off, and I still see the pencil mark it left today (4 years later) under the skin. Should I be concerned?

It's graphite. It is not all that dangerous.

When I got the pencil stabbed under my skin, i used to remove it with a sharp pin. Scrape a bit of skin and remove the underlying pencil lead.

I don't it is of any concern except cosmetically
