I think the tissue is permanently sensitive there now.<br />Liquid nitrogen is not fun. I have cried when I had a plantar wart on the bottom of my foot.

Glad you got things all taken care of. My dad had little spots of skin cancer removed in the doctor's office so many times he said he lost count. He had been in the south pacific in the navy when he was young and they all ran around without shirts on when they were up on deck and had tans so dark they were almost black, Dad said. He was in for four years. Back then nobody knew about the sun causing skin cancer--and all of his was from the waist up where he had tanned. They made them wear their long pants but let them go without shirts. Glad you're A-okay for another year. :) Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-47623771709736741832016-07-28T11:13:06.343-05:002016-07-28T11:13:06.343-05:00Oh how I love those candy stores (and so does my w...Oh how I love those candy stores (and so does my waist - NOT).

I thought those keratoses were a pre-cancerous thing, but maybe not when I asked Dr. Google. Then I clicked on 'images', oh boy;-( I have seen a few tiny white ones, but nothing needing removing yet.

I have had a few frozen off my face and as you say - it isn't painful - but stings a little for a few minutes. My dermatologist says these are from the sun - which I was exposed to a lot while mowing a large lawn for more than 30 years. Those were the days when non one talked about using sun<br />protection and I never wore a hat.
