Mole Concerning?

Hi, would you be concerned by this lump on my wrist? It appeared a couple of years ago! At the time a GP said it just looked like a random growth. I'm seeing more and more stories about skin cancer and have a lot of health anxiety!

No I wouldn't be worried.

Please ask your GP to refer you to a dermatologist. It may well be nothing but your GP cannot know that for sure. Did s/he use a dermascope to look at it?

My GP brushed me off for 18 months, refusing to refer me and in the end I had to cut a chunk out of myself and insist it was sent to the lab. (Even that was messed up.) Long story short I have stage 3 melanoma.
