Hi!
Long time since I’ve posted here but I have a worry about melanoma.
A week ago, I noticed a new mole on the outside of my foot. It looked darker than any other moles I have, and it is new (confirmed by a photo 2 months ago when it wasn’t there)
I saw the GP who looked at it through the dermatoscope. It’s 1mm x 1.5mm. He couldn’t see any reason to suspect it’s melanoma (I’m only 30) but he has referred me to Dermatology for reassurance.
Has anyone on here had a new funny looking dark mole pop up on their skin, that wasn’t melanoma?
It’s certainly an “ugly duckling” mole in that it’s darker than anything I have on my skin.
I downloaded an App - scanoma - which says it’s possibly not concerning and possibly concerning. It seems to change its opinion depending on the photo. All my other moles were not concerning.
Advice!?
Thanks
