I am genetically predisposed to having moles and I have a mole under my right eye that has gotten larger within the past two months. I just noticed that it has grown even larger. Should I be worried?

Since the mortality rate for stage 3&4 Melanoma is fairly pessimistic ( stage 4 being less than 50% living for 5 years and stage 3 only being slightly better) wouldn’t it seem more reasonable and compassionate to fore go Chemo or Radiation treatments since the side effects typically make you wish you were dead. Knowing this and the fact that you’ll still have to deal with the symptoms of the disease sooner or later with or without the "treatment". Hopefully someone out there feels as I do that the end of life is the end of life so try to be as comfortable as possible until it arrives. ( understanding that we all have to die from "something" makes Melanoma no more frightening than any other terminal disease)
PS. Yes, I do have Melanoma…and putting the options up for discussion.
Hello,
Could anybody suggest me any of the teatment options for removing of the moles. Recently, I’ve got a sun burn and afterwards a lot of moles (melanin stains) appeared on my skin.It’s kind of embarrasing for me.
Thank you.
i have tried putting ice and gauze and neosporin and it still won’t stop bleeding. the blood comes out very fast, its almost like i am having a nosebleed on my cheek
I have a white mole on my face that was not too big, looked like a small beauty mark. It started to itch so I itched it. Overnight it got bigger and seems inflamed. It’s double in size!!! Do you know what is causing it to grow so fast? Can I do anything to stop it?
