Hi everybody,
Can anyone tell me if this mole looks like something I should be worried about?
Thanks.

Sorry, just found your post and noticed not ONE soul had popped in to even say hello....So, hello. From the picture you posted, I have a mole that looks exactly like the one you have on my leg. My dermatologist says its just a common mole. You also seem to be fair skinned. I have had numerous moles/lesions etc removed and even had malignant melanoma removed 8 years ago.. I keep an eye on myself. Has this mole always been there? Has it changed in size, form or color? Does it itch or ooze? These are questions to ask yourself. If you've been exposed to sunburns over the years or are at risk, I'd say find a dermatologist and have a body scan just to be on the safe side. I go once a year now. Wish I'd started doing this when I was 40 years younger! For peace of mind if for nothing else! Hope I've helped! Cool
