Possible melanoma?
I have a black spot on my leg, picked at it, scabbed, and when I picked offf the scab, it contains the black spot pigment, is that a sign of melanoma?
while we can't offer a diagnosis for your safety, I would encourage you to have this concerning spot checked by your doctor. Our community likes to say 'when in doubt, check it out.' I also wanted to share some information on common signs of melanoma from our site if you hadn't checked it out yet https://skincancer.net/types-signs/melanoma-look-like. If you're comfortable, please keep us updated on how you're doing. All my best, Julie (team member) 
Hello, I would concur with Julie in encouraging you to see a physician if you are not sure about something with your skin. In my experience, my skin has a lot going on and I am never quite sure what things are and I rely on my dermatologist to look at it. Thanks for reaching out. Scott skincancer.net team member
