Hi, I had 2 cases of melanoma and 2 precancer. None of my spots hurt, they did get edgy,black and rised. learn by me, my first melanoma I let go for 8 months, Know I get checked out every 6 months, Know 20 years later, the first one( I DIDN'T have looked at right away) is know stage III The melanoma went into my blond stream. If anyone ever has a ? on a mole. go right away, many of time I've gotten the call it's nothing AND THAT THE BEST FEELING!!!! good luck, and my thoughts are with you
Hi. I've seen the picture you posted, and it doesn't seem to me to be the usual appearance of melanoma (follow this link to see what the usual melanoma lesions look like: http://www.skincarephysicians.com/SkinCancerNet/melanoma.html). Having said this, I would like to emphasize that the diagnosis of melanoma cannot be made based on appearance alone. A biopsy of the lesion is needed to confirm the diagnosis.
