i have had a large mole on my left upper arm for about 15-20 years, i am 28, and over the past few months i have noticed that my upper left arm has begun to have a slight ache or pain occur ever so often. it does not hurt its just a dull pain feeling. i have also noticed that the area around the mole itches sometimes but never directly on the mole. i do worry sometimes and this aggravates the symptoms so i do not know if it is in my head but i do know that the pain does occur every few days. my mole is still the same size, about a pencil eraser, it has always been that big. i do think that it has lightened somewhat, not much maybe just a little. i think i need to have it checked out but it makes me very nervous to do so. has anyone else had similiar probs?
