Is this herpes or skin cancer? ?

I got this on my shoulder a few days ago and i don’t know what it is or means. I used perfume the other day and it kinda sting but not that much. It doesn’t itch or anything. I’m kinda worried.

    Either should be checked by your doctor so make an appointment as soon as practicable.

    To answer the first person’s comment. No it doesn’t itch, it hasn’t gotten bigger, it’s flat. I went to the beach a few weeks ago but I used sunblock. Idk if it’s from that. It just looks ugly and I’ve never had that before so that’s why I’m concerned

    If you are ''worried'' about it then go and see your doctor

    and if he/she is concerned about it you will be sent for a biopsy.

    We can't tell you .. from a photo.

    Does it itch ?

    Is it raised or flat ?

    Is that how big it's got in just a couple of days ?

    It probably is nothing to worry about

    .. but if it is cancer the earlier you treat it the better.
