The skin is the largest organ and it is much easier to notice changes on it visually.
If a new growth appears on the skin, which increases in size, changes color or just worries us, we should consult a doctor and determine whether everything in the body is in order or not.
Observe the structural changes and do not delay the visit to the doctor!
It is doubtful if the mole has changed its appearance:
- Asymmetry – The mole is asymmetrical — one half looks different from the other half.
- Border – The mole has a border that looks irregular, scalloped or fuzzy, instead of a well-defined edge.
- Color – A mole has multiple colors, including brown, black, tan, pink, red or even white and blue.
- Diameter – A mole is bigger than six millimeters across
- Evolution – The mole is evolving — changing color, size or shape.
- You noticed bleeding from the mole or the mole gave birth to a puff;
- An ulcer has appeared on the area of the mole or this area causes an itchy sensation.
