I have had a mole in my armpit years. Should I be worried about that?

It´s quite big, but I haven’t noticed any major changes lately. I have other moles too. image

    Hallo, I dont think it is a mole.Its a raspberry nevus,sometimes called a strawberry nevus. If it doesnt bother you and there are no changes then it can be left alone. If you want it removed you should see your doctor or dermatologist.

      Ok. I have thought they are very red and smaller and exist since birth.

      But it doesn´t look like normal mole as you say.

      I just wonder what it is.

    Most of them do occur from birth and can be flat as well. This looks like the type that occurs in adults. If you have more of these on your skin elsewhere you should see your doctor
