Is This Mole Cancerous ? *pic* Posted: 06-25-07 17:00pm
Hi everybody,
Can anyone tell me if this mole looks like
something I should be worried about?
Thanks.

Sorry, just found your post and noticed
not ONE soul had popped in to even say
hello....So, hello. From the picture you
posted, I have a mole that looks exactly
like the one you have on my leg. My
dermatologist says its just a common mole.
You also seem to be fair skinned. I have
had numerous moles/lesions etc removed and
even had malignant melanoma removed 8
years ago.. I keep an eye on myself. Has
this mole always been there? Has it
changed in size, form or color? Does it
itch or ooze? These are questions to ask
yourself. If you've been exposed to
sunburns over the years or are at risk,
I'd say find a dermatologist and have a
body scan just to be on the safe side. I
go once a year now. Wish I'd started doing
this when I was 40 years younger! For
peace of mind if for nothing else! Hope
I've helped!
