To give a bit of background. I'm 26 female, blue eyes and body covered in freckles. My mum has natural red hair and very pale skin, I inherited her skin and my dad's darks hair. I've never had a tan in my life , despite travelling all around the world. I had burnt quite a few times though as a teenager.
Anyway, my partner noticed the 2 spots on the back of neck - I have had these for about a year. I also have a very similar one on my chest by right breast which is about 5 months old. He said I should go have them looked at as they look similar to when his mum had a basal cell carcinoma. I'm convinced they are just normal moles, and although they are different to the other thousands of freckles and moles I have, they just don't look 'dangerous', if that makes sense?
If anyone has had Basal before could you please give me some indication on wether they look similar? I know the GP is my best bet but I'm just not sure how ideal it is to bother them with the current pandemic going on for something that's probably completley normal.
They are small little pink/reddish spots that are raised, waxy almost to look at - almost like a water blister but they don't pop!
Any advice is appreciated 😊
