Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Three months ago, I saw a dark brown mole under my right breast. The mole does not produce any symptoms. The mole when touched is noticeable bulging, is not smooth as other moles that I have. What can it be?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It could be a normal melanocytic nevus. If there is a sudden increase in shape and size with irregular border, an increase in color or rapidly evolving, then you can go for a non-invasive technique like dermoscopy and invasive technique like skin biopsy to confirm whether it is benign or malignant.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
