Well damn! I'm off to see the priest:
"When someone has a boil on his skin and it heals, and in the place where
the boil was, a white swelling or reddish-white spot appears, he must
present himself to the priest. The priest is to examine it, and if it appears
to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has turned white, the priest
shall pronounce him unclean. It is an infectious skin disease that has
broken out where the boil was. But if, when the priest examines it, there
is no white hair in it and it is not more than skin deep and has faded,
then the priest is to put him in isolation for seven days. If it is spreading
in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him unclean; it is infectious. But if
the spot is unchanged and has not spread, it is only a scar from the boil,
and the priest shall pronounce him clean." - Leviticus 13:18-23
