my mum said that spot could be a birthmark not a mole

I would advice anyone with a mole which itches to see your gp asap,this does not sound good to me as moles are not supposed to itch like this.Get this checked out incase its something more serious.Good Luck

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and an ex nurse and i advise you to see a doctor it may be cancerous and if caught in time will cause no more problems.You mum should KNOW if it is a birthmark.Have you had it since you were born? If so, it still could be a problem. DO NOT scratch it again you will get an infection. Use some tea tree oil or calendula cream, if it clears up in 2 or 3 days, no problem, if not see a Dr

Go to your GP. we are always being told that if a mole itches, changes shape it could be a sign of Melanoma. Easily treated if caught early enough. I had some moles removed from my neck years ago. There was no waiting, I got an hospital appointment within days, and under a local anaesthetic they were cut off.

Do you have an anti fungal cream at home? If not,something like Canesten cream will do. Put a thin layer over it twice a day,and this should help it heal properly and stop any infection.
