New Moles - Cancer: Skin Message Board

FlorenceC · 05-08-2006, 01:58 PM

Over the last few years, it seems I'm constantly growing new moles, little tiny ones . . . I would say that I probably have about 10 more moles than I did say 6 or 7 years ago . . . Is this normal with age? One of them is one that i've always had but it's huge and it feels almost as if it is full of air . . . i would really like to get that one removed because i've snagged it twice and it bled ALOT . . . but the other ones that are growing in are the ones that really worry me . . . any opinions/advice appreciated!!

Key words that you just used are "grown" and "changed"...Go to a dermatologist when ANYTHING changes or shows it self new on your body. My new growth was a melanoma. Not a mole. Not a freckle. You dont second guess any of the oddities our body does. Not trying to scare you but just trying to get you to understand...DON"T WAIT OR WONDER! God Bless You and let us know what happens!

Hi ...if it wasnt a mole or freckle , can u explain what is looked like , in color texture , size ,and area.plz
I have just over the last yr gotten a weird looking very dark brown clored , umm something or other ,..looks like well, smaller then a dime when i touch it its real smooth, but has grown, not sure if it's becuz of weight gain and gotten larger in the thigh dept, or if it really has grown..its on my outer right thigh..
Also on my left upper leg , I have a sorta red bumpy rash,like li'l red pimples but covering my whole top upper left leg, showed doc, he gave me cream,but hasnt gone away,
So just wondering what urs looked like
thanks ahead..
