Mole Looking Spots On Butt And Back Thigh?
Posted: 04-14-07 19:25pm

I am 31 years old and very active. I took a 9 month lay off from lifting weights and running and walked with my pregnant wife. I started my workouts back up 2 weeks ago. I also got into running sprints last week. Today in the shower i notice little mole looking spots on the back of my thighs up to the lower sides of my butt. They do not hurt and I cant feel them. No itch, nothing. What is going on? Could this be from the heat on the machine weight lifting machines or from the new sprinting?

I have never really heard ofgetting mole looking spots from working out or running. I can undersand if you have been in direct sun or have a history/family history of getting sunburned. What colors are these spots and are they raised? For peace of mind, if this is bothering you so very much, schedule an appointment wiht a dermotologist. I go fo regular skin checks every year now. I had a spot (mole black) that jsut appeared one day. I actally thought wasa deer tick. Had it removed and biopsy concluded it was melanoma. I had spent years in the sun without even thinking about sunscreen. This could very well be nothing, but well worth the fee to go and find out that is really is nothing! Good luck!
