    Mole with dark spots...

    Ok so im a little bit naughty... I have 2 'big' moles one under my left BB and one on the inside of my left thigh and i never check them!!!

    Just before i was in the shower i was checking for lumps in my BBs when i looked down and though "oh havnt checked my moles for a while" (years actually )

    So the one under my BB is fine - still the same as it always has been... BUT the one on my leg i have noticed has 2 black or REALLY dark brown spots in it and if i run my finger over it i can feel it.. is that what you would called raised?

    Should i get this checked out?? has anyone else experienced the same thing?

    Yep get it checked out, it might not be anything but it's best to have moles checked once a year.

    I don't have any moles myself, but my DH does - with a very strong family history of melanoma. He gets checked every few years, even if there's no noticeable changes. I'd day get it checked - better to be safe than sorry!
