Does this mole warrant any concern?

I am full of moles so I can’t really tell if they change easily - this one is very small been there my whole life but caught my eye the other day as it looked raised on one side to me and red and when I used flash it appeared red and yellow?

is it worth speaking to a GP for a dermatologist refferal or should I wait and compare it in a few weeks?

If you think it has changed in appearance, for your own peace of mind I would get it checked out. I had a spot on my arm a few years ago which I was worried about, GP looked at it and referred me under the 2 week pathway. Turned out to be harmless but glad it was checked out.

Well you ARE concerned aren't you? I'd just get it seen for your peace of mind. If you're very moley it might not be a bad idea to ask GP/derm about mole mapping anyway (do as I say, not as I do - I've been meaning to do this and never got round to it).
