There are several signs that a mole might be developing into a melanoma which is a type of skin cancer. The signs are that the mole is
* Getting bigger
* Changing shape, especially if it is becoming an irregular shape
* Changing colour or becoming patchy looking
* Itching
* Bleeding
A mole that is showing any of these signs should be looked at by a specialist. There are many harmless reasons for a mole to itch but the recommendation may be to have it removed. A specialist will then closely examine it under a microscope to see if there are any cancer cells there.
Most moles that are removed will not be cancerous. But it is better to be safe than sorry. Melanoma is completely curable if it is picked up early. But if it is left and has already spread by the time it is diagnosed it is not possible to cure it.
Go back to your GP and ask for a referral to a pigmented lesion clinic. This is an out patients clinic specially devoted to checking for melanomas. If there is not one of these in your area, you should be sent to the dermatology department at your local hospital.

I had an itchy mole, and got it checked out at the doctors'. He told me that it didn't look cancerous, and that the itchiness and mole like shape was caused by an ingrown hair and that the bump will get bigger everytime I rub it.
Bottom line: Go to the doctor's to find out.

You might have something like skin cancer, b/c I never heard of a itching mole. Go to a doctor.

not really. Moles usually itch because they tend to be drier than surrounding skin.
The signs of cancer in a mole is sudden radical change in color or shape of the mole from regular even borders to uneven borders.

No, but watch the mole and make sure it doesn't enlarge and turn brown or black. That is when you should worry. For now, you have nothing to worry about.
