Mole changed shape!

Posted , 2 users are following.

I’ve had a recent cancer scare with a spot on my face. And I am going to see a doctor about it to hopefully give me the all clear. However, I noticed today, a flat mole on my collar bone, has now developed lumps in it. I’m not sure how to act? Am I paranoid because of my prior scare? Does it look misshapen and indicative that I need to get it checked out ASAP?

    Hi. This must be a very anxious time for you, but the best advice i can give you is, if you feel in yourself that the mole has changed then you must get it checked by a doctor or dermotologist immediately as early intervention has much higher survival rates. I don't mean to sound awful, but nobody on here is a doctor & i think only your doctor can give you a proper diagnosis. I have looked at the mole & i do admit it does show some irregularity around the borders but it's not really for me to say. Good luck & i hope that you get a good result.
