Patch of skin peeled off
I was just casually reaching behind my neck and I felt a dried patch of skin. On further examination it looked like it was coming off and so I managed to take it off. Have attached a picture of the skin I took off. This has never happened before and I haven't felt any rashes or itchiness in that area of my neck. What could this be and should I be worried? The skin underneath, once peeled, was baby pink just like as if dead skin came off and new skin was there underneath.
