Would this worry you?

[Whippetrealgood]

Mole on child's back has become raised and has almost split (sorry I know that sounds gross, can't think how else to describe it!) Not bleeding, but it's scabby/flaky on the surface. No known injury.

I know the chances of it being sinister are miniscule, but I am going to ask for a GP appointment just to be sure.

Would you be concerned?

Yes take him to the GP, but don't worry until there's something to worry about. My sister had a suspicious mole removed as a child.

Enough make a GP appointment but not enough to panic.

Hi

I did a Google pic search for you
The very good news is the first several pics came back a "moles" and one looked like the spitting image you posted and best of all it was an an NHS site

But for reasurance etc, go to the GP

Thanks all.

I'd definitely like it to be looked at, even if it just means we keep an eye on it for now. I suppose there is a chance he's caught it on something and forgotten, but still, better to get it checked.

I've measured it too, so if it does keep changing we should pick up on it quickly.

@mondaytosunday was your sister's mole cancerous?
