Yes that is completely normal, Just make sure you keep an eye on your mole to monitor the size, shape and colour of it though.\nIf you notice any changes in it's appearance get it checked by your doctor.

the best way for early detection of any skin cancer is routine visits to your dermatologist. by routine i mean if youre at risk you should go in shorter time frames, if at low risk go at farther times. the doc will examine your skin at every visit and make notes of the location size and shape of exhisting moles and monitor them and the rest of you for any chenges.

There is for warts but not moles. You need to go to a Dr and have it removed. Is painless. Please don't try removing it yourself.

I'm not sure if there's a way you can do it yourself hun...go see a dermatologist and speak with him/her about the medical procedure.\n\nBe safe!

If you get a Dermatologist to remove your mole with liquid nitrogen, there will be no scar. I had 3 removed on my face from this procedure, and you can't even notice where they were

No it does not hurt just feels a bit strange.  The exam is well worth it as it is very important for a mans well being to be sure the prostate gland is OK. If the doctor finds anything early its easily treated.

You can go to a doctor and have it burnt off or froze off.  My mom doesn't have a scar and she had hers burnt off.  But that was a mole on her back.  A plastic surgeon can work wonders for all areas though!

yes it is safe..as long as you go to a Dermatologist (skin doctor)as they have special training doing it.mush safer than how they used to do it..which was to freeze it and scrap or cut it off...it can be done right in the office,some will do it the first visit.It doesn't take very long to do.\n I have light skin and have had a few flat moles removed to test for skin cancer.....had it done both ways...the laser didn't hurt very much..the scraping/cutting did as it is like any scrap or cut...cutting they may stitch it up...and it can leave a scar.

i know they are expensive but go to a dermatoligist.  right now there are a lot of problems with infections after all kinds of procedures.  Going to a clinic you run a higher risk of infection.  se a real doctor also so they can make sure nothing else is going on with the mole-ie skin cancer

I have had 2 cysts removed-both felt like marbles.\nCould not have been harder! Get to Dr. & if they have to do a needle biopsey it does not hurt! I swear!!

I had a tiny one removed by a plastic surgeon, and I think it  costs around $150.00, BUT the price is higher than average because since it's a mole, it HAS to go to a lab for a biopsy and that is included in the price.

No, not from how you have described the situation. But you should be careful of infection. \n\nIf, at some point, it does not heal it might be a good idea to have a dermatologist biopsy or evaluate it for you. Keep an eye on it.\n\nIncidentally, when my son was little he had a mole on his neck that kept getting bigger so we had a surgeon remove it. We thought we were protecting him against cancer . . . little did we know that despite doing all we could to protect him a few years later he developed an abdominal cancer. All that time and we worried about the wrong thing! The mole was not the problem . . turns out the tumors were in his abdomen.

The general rule of thumb is, if the mole has been around as long as you can remember, you should get it checked if it: has started to grow larger, is no longer smooth against the skin (has become raised up), if the edges of it have become irregularly shaped (no longer round-ish), if it's a dark mole and a newer paler "shadow" seems to be surrounding it.  All of these would be great reasons to see a dermatologist to have it looked at.
