It could be just where the skin is producing to much tissue in that area. Your doctor has probably told you it may be maligment as a precaution.. There is really no certain thing that you should expect. Just pray .. and be strong for your son, no matter what.. I can certainly understand your fears, but right now you should be dealing with his fears and not yours.. Take one day at a time and make the best of it.. You should treat each day as you did before you took him to the doctor. He will be fine... just keep your head up and have confidence... Remember who is watching you !!!! BELIEVE !!!!

They need to always check these things out. It is probably not malignant. It would be very unusual if it were to be malignant, so it probably is not. Now is a good time for your son to start eating properly and start taking vitamins. If he smokes he should consider this a wake up call and quit. I'm sure it is just a non malignant mass that they will just suction out. That is what they would have done before the MRI was available, but they have to pay for those machines. Good luck.
