I was quite worried for the past few
months. I've had this small mole on my
wrist since I was 16. When I turned 19, I
noticed that there was a growth under it.
Maybe it's the mole growing.
The growth is quite irregular; in fact, it
grew larger than the mole itself, but it's
not that big. After a few weeks, it
stopped growing and flattened a little.
Moreover, I also noticed that its (mole)
dark brown color lightened, becoming fair
with my skin that when you look at my
wrist you wouldn't even think that I've
had a mole on it.
It's still a little elevated though. Could
this be a form of Cancer?

Correct me, if I'm wrong, but... do you
talk about having ring like area around
your initial mole that's lighter than your
skin?
Is your mole one colored or with uneven
distribution of color?
Does it have irregular borders and
irregular shape?
Do you feel itchiness?

*nope I'm not having a "ring like area"
around my mole but yes it (the growth) is
lighter than my skin color.
*my mole is one colored.
*it has regular borders until the said
"growth"
*it doesn't feel itchy.
M&ms, I'm so sorry for my reply. I
know it's kinda hard to understand. It's
just that I'm having difficulty of
expressing myself since I don't talk
English much. I'm from the Philippines.
Thanks for the reply.

appearance.
