Does anyone know what this is? Had it for years, doctors last time (years ago) said just a spot? Now doubled in size. Have the odd hair grow out it.

I hate it & want it gone but need to figure out what it is in order to know who to contact!!

Currently trying teatree oil.

Thanks.

Looks like a raised mole to me.

Ask your go for a referral to dermatology, they will know.

I’ve always had an understanding that a mole that grows hair is generally healthy - i.e not cancerous. I don’t think it’s a hard and fast rule but I’d take it as a good sign. That said, please do get it checked out. Google Mole Clinics in your area.
