I was told as a child that because I had MANY severe sunburns (almost weekly from ages 7-16 in the Summer), I have blond hair, blue eyes, and lots of moles…that the doctors would be surprised if I DIDN’T get skin cancer eventually. I never thought much about it until now:

I have read about the ABCD’s of melanoma and I have several moles that fail them all. Two on my left upper thigh worry me the most, as they are almost completely flat, asymetrical, multi-colored, about the size of a pencil eraser, and getting worse by the day it seems (probably a little exagerated). Another is on my right thigh and the only reason it worries me is because it has a black border on one side. Another is on my belly and is almost flat, almost black (way darker than any of the rest), and a little bigger than a pencil eraser. I also have many other moles and freckles in various spots that have either black or white spots in them. I am going to the dermatologist on June 6th.

What do you think?

I cut it while shaving last night. it looks like most of it is gone now. i had a band-aid on it all night, keeping pressure on it, but woke up this morning with my face covered in blood. how do I get it to stop?

So I have a small elevated mole on my arm, and like most moles it grows super long dark hairs out of it. My mom always told me not to mess with it like pick at it or pull the hairs out cause that could turn it cancerous.

Is this true?

Is that normal?
