I had a pimple about two years ago that later turned brown and looks like a mole, it's lighter than my complexion however, (i have medium brown skin). I didn't worry about it because it started going down and it is symmetrical and had no signs of being cancerous, plus I had no insurance then. Well I recently had a baby and the mole seems to have grown, or something has grown underneath and to the side of it. It first started off getting hard, and now has gotten tender, and is turning a reddish color like i've been hit in the face. It feels like the size of a marble. I do not have any scaling or bleeding. I am only 22 years old. I am going to make an appointment to get it removed, regardless of what it is, but since my husband is away in iraq until (mid june) I would have to wait since I have no one to even watch my son until then.
Should I worry about waiting until then? Does it sound like I have skin cancer of some sort? If so, what type? Please help!
