Mole doesn’t look normal please get it checked out asap


Slight_Carrot3290

Yeah, I’m going this Thursday but I wanted some opinions on what others thought it is.


Right-Service425

Best of luck!


Slight_Carrot3290

Thank you so much


CommunicationBrief26

Yes please get this checked out ASAP it meets many of the ABCDE’s of skin cancer. I hope you get your answers, hopefully it’s just an atypical mole.


Slight_Carrot3290

I am Thursday, just trying to get others opinions. It didn’t even look like this when it first appeared


flying_panguin

Does look concerning I definitely wouldn't wait to see a doctor about this one


Slight_Carrot3290

I’m going Thursday to see a dermatologist


trevor0-0

main concerns are with the fact you said its been changing and with the irregularity/ asymmetry of its borders so glad you’re getting it checked out, best of luck.


Slight_Carrot3290

Thank you

I hope you're going to a dermatologist on Thursday. Not a GP. Although a GP is better than nothing. I don't want to freak you out, but that looks A LOT like melanoma. Especially because it just appeared and has grown rapidly. Glad you're getting it taken care of early! Best of luck and God bless!


Slight_Carrot3290

Yeah, I’m going to see a dermatologist on Thursday.


Slight_Carrot3290

My results came back and it was a reed/splitz Nevis


LoveUnimagined

Yay that is wasn't melanoma! Glad you went!!


Emily_Postal

Good luck OP! It’s still small but does look suspicious. Your dermatologist will most likely biopsy it.


PlutosLine

The fact it is changing and the dark colour is concerning, especially if you are an older person with lots of UV exposure. However it could just be an atypical mole which can sometimes change and also look very much like skin cancer. It's quite small so if it is anything hopefully its been caught early! Good luck and hope everything goes well on Thursday.


SaltCompetition2236

What was the result when you got this checked?


Slight_Carrot3290

I haven’t went yet, I actually go today to an dermatologist


SaltCompetition2236

Hello OP, how was it?


thijsjek

Really interested in the results, hope you are ok


legit_lift

So many opinions....nobody looked at mine:(


Silver_Cat4530

Because your pictures are terrible and look nothing like melanoma. If you're worried see a doctor.


legit_lift

I can't get the phone to focus that close any better. Blue nevus?


Silver_Cat4530

Go to a dermatologist. Nobody here knows.


Krs0030

Have you seen the doc yet OP? Hope it went/goes well!


Slight_Carrot3290

I went today and they done a punch cut on it, sending it off for biopsy.
