If this is just one patch on its own and you dont have anything else like it on your body then you should get checked out with your doctor if you are in UK or dermatologist. The head is a prime place for suspicious patches to develop as it is constantly in the sunlight.Not all skin cancers are melanomas and a biopsy and removal will put your mind at rest. Your doctor however may immediately identify it as something that is quite common.
