I have several moles across my body, mostly behind my shoulders and on my arms. Many of them are atypical, having unusual shape and pigmentation, but are benign. One mole on my neck is really misshapen and itches often. It’s not the diameter of a pencil eraser and the color is pretty uniform, but it’s slightly raised. I’ve been applying hydrogen peroxide 3% often as I’ve read it can be used as an alternative cure to melanoma and the mole (and only the mole) stings like crazy when I soak it in the HP. I’ve tried this on my other moles and they don’t sting. Is the stinging a sign that the mole is melanoma or is it just a reaction from prolonged exposure of the hydrogen peroxide?

I have a freckle-looking thing in my mouth. It is a millimeter or two in diameter. It is smooth, it does not stick out or anything. It looks like a scab, but it’s not. Its a reddish-brown color. It does not hurt at all. My mom thinks that it might be where a wire on my braces poked me (it is in the spot where a pokey wire was hurting me a couple weeks ago). I am going to the orthodontist in two weeks, so I will ask them about it. What I’m worried about is that I might have melanoma, because I looked up the symptoms and it is a symptom to have freckles in your mouth. Please help ASAP, I’m worried :(
Oh, and also… The borders of the freckle are very defined. It’s a perfect circle. And finally, I first noticed it a few days ago.

ok, so i have a small mole that i’m thinking of getting removed, but i’d like some opinions first:)
it is on my left lower hip, like RIGHT beside my hip bone. it is very small , like probably 0.5 cm in diameter, but the thing is that it’s raised, and i haate raised moles! i wouldnt care if it was a small flat mole, but because its raised it makes me soooo self-concious !!
what do you think i should do? what would you do?
and about the removal, do you know how much it would cost approximately to get a really small raised mole removed by a dermatologist? what is the procedure like? i dont mind if it leaves a small scar, i would really rather have that than this mole.
thankss :)

I have a flat dark brown mole on my left shoulder. About 6 mm in diameter. It’s not a perfect circle but is roundish

I have a black, facial mole on my upper lip with a diameter of 3 mm. It really bugs me, but I haven’t told my parents yet. How should I tell them, and how much would it particularly cost? We’ve got insurance.
