When I was diagnosed with diabetes I started getting moles all over the my upper back. Now I have about 15 or 16 small moles on the shoulder part of my upper back, 2 or 3 on my neck and 1 on the left side of my face on my hair line. Do any of you know why this happened? what is a mole?

Moles are not "caused", they just develop...usually (but not always) before the age of 20. Moles are simply a growth of pigmented cells. Most appear spontaneously or from exposure to sunlight. Moles are very common.
Just always remember to keep an eye on your moles for the ABC's of melanomas:
asymmetry
border
color
diameter
elevation
If you see changes in an existing mole, always have it checked out by a dermatologist.

averting alot of light is one to ward off moles, yet once you would be interior the solar use a style of a sunscreen with a minimum of a 30 SPF and to do away with moles you will could have your well-being practitioner burn or cut back them off, do no longer attempt to do it your self, the mole will bleed and whilst it bleeds they do no longer give up bleeding.
