Hi,

Any changes in a mole such as color or  border warrants further evaluation by your doctor. Are there other symptoms present?  This could also be due to an infection or inflammed  hair follicles. It is best that you have this checked for proper diagnosis. Direct clinical examination is essential for proper diagnosis.  Antibiotic treatment may be indicated for any infectious causes. Try not to manipulate the lesion to prevent further harm.

Take care and keep us posted.
