I need someone to put my mind at ease.
On Friday I went to the beach with some friends and spent the whole day there, I had sunblock on but forgot to put some on my legs so I have a big patch of sunburn on my knee.
I have noticed that there is a small dark mole that was on the red patch of sunburn. This greaked me out and it sent me into anxiety thinking Im going to get melanoma.
I told my friend and she told me to get it checked by my doctor asap this made me cry.
My mum and another friend said that its nothing to worry about as sunburn doesnt cause melanoma. i keep thinking about it and knowing I need to get it checked out regularly.
Do I have to see a doctor asap? Is it alright for me to wait till the new year?
Do any of you think its an urgent thing to get checked right away?
