It’s round but not evenly coloured

Just get it checked by the gp to be safe. Anytime I go in I always get them to check my mole too.

It looks fine to me but I'm not a dermatologist just have loads of moles. Go see your GP as they are trained enough to see if it looks dodgy

It’s my husbands, he’s never keen on going to the GP but I’ll give him a kick up the bum 😁

Download the skinvision app. My cousin used this and it alerted her to a mole which ended up being Cancerous

If you're concerned about a mole, then go to your GP.

I had a strange thing on my arm in the summer. phoned GP, sent a photo, applied the cream that she prescribed. That didn't help, so called again, went into GP who referred me to a dermatolgist.

Had an appointment a few weeks later, then had the strange thing removed. Received a letter last week confirming it was nothing to worry about.

Please, just give the GP a call.

It's not possible to tell from your photo.

Sorry.

It's a close up shot that doesn't show the size or any changes.

The rules for dodgy moles are

many colours in it incl black
irregular edges
a change in size
bleeding or crusting or itching

But no one here can say for sure.

There is a national Mole Clinic- main one is off Oxford St, London.

I went there to have a mole checked and it's much faster than seeing a GP and waiting for a referral.

They examine the mole (Dr), take a photo and send it off to a dermo and you get a yes/no reply quickly. Was very reasonably priced.
