I had skin biopsy recently and it did hurt.3 punches were made one in the shin area another a little above the knee and the third half way through the thigh. The one on shin are hurt a lot and it’s now about 13 weeks still that one is hurting. That maybe because she did it right on the most vulnerable site of my shin pain. It’s now 13 weeks and one part of the result is yet to come. But everything that came was negative but my pain is unbearable. The doctor gave up saying there’s nothing they can suggest as everything came negative. So much for an advanced tertiary care center such as Johns Hopkins!

@sbelur I'm surprised they took a biopsy from the shin as the skin is pretty thin there and doesn't get good oxygen supply. So for those reasons, takes forever to heal. Have they done the nerve conduction studies as well? I'd see a new neurologist & take your records with you. You shouldn't hurting like this without answers.
