    Get it checked out is the best policy.

    I myself had a strange looking patch on my arm which I ignored for at least a year, thinking it was just a type of dry skin, my daughter saw it and made me book an appointment at the Doctors, I was sent an appointment from the hospital and the doctor said it was inconclusive so a biopsy was the next step, it came back as Lentigo Malignia which is cancerous cells but have not yet invaded the inner layer. Had the patch removed and considered that was the end of it, but unfortunately they needed to go to the original site again and remove more. I consider myself very lucky and would urge anyone who has any type of mole or skin with surround that just seems odd, go and get it checked it could save your life. Hope my advice was worthwhile.

      I agree with Margaret Natasha. Your sister should see a Dermatologist as soon as possible.

      Let us know how she gets on.

    She can get rid of it easily by simply applying "Apple Cider Vinegar" the organic one.

    Put some apple cider vinegar on a ball of cotton and cover with a plaster, just like a normal wound dressing.

    she needs to repeat the process every 6 hours and wash in between. she needs to keep doing this for at least 2 weeks.

    the mole will dry out and vanish slowly.

    she may feel a bit of burning but that's normal and only means that the treatment is working.

    I've tried this myself and it worked perfectly without surgery.

      Doing something like that if the mole is benign and non changing is fine, however some do become cancerous and could be the size of a saucer underneath the skin which you cannot see, that is why it is not a bad idea to have any unusual ones checked.
