I have a mole under my arm, close to my armpit. I was just shaving and I jerked it a little. That caused bleeding right under it...kinda seems to be on the border of the skin and the mole, right at the edge of the mole. The bleeding isn't strong, just a little bit, like in any other scratch.
It's a protruding mole, not one of those flat ones, and i've had it my whole life without any strange changes or change in coloration.
Will bleeding/tearing cause a mole to form into skin cancer?

No. If it's basal cell carcinoma or another type of skin cancer, then scratching the tumor might affect how it spreads. But a mole is a mole.

Moles, warts, and skin labels are common skin lesions that develop naturally. Although they're typically low malignant, they can be humiliating if located on a visible part like the face. Skin wounds like moles and warts cause self-confidence issues to the sufferers. An individual with moles normally turns into a loner since they don't really want to be seen in public.

Cancer is a genetically-based disease in which mutations passed through chromosomes, whether from heredity or birth defects, to the person. Cuts, bruises, abrasions, punctures or any other superficial tissue damage alters a person physically, (think science class) but not, so to speak, chemically, or in this case genetically. A cut or wound will not alter your genetic makeup anymore than lifting weight will improve your future (or current) children's inherent physical strength.

To spot melanoma and other skin-based cancers, remember the acronym, or letter sequence rather, ABCDE - asymmetry, boarder, color, diameter, and evolution. If you see a non-symmetric mole, or one that has an uneven border, color or diameter above 6mm, (a pencil eraser) or moles start to duplicate unexpectedly, seek medical attention.

Scratching a mole in itself does NOT cause cancer...it is the mole itself we have to focus on....most of the moles in the body,especially those we are born with, are harmless,,,,,however, when a mole gives us some itching and bleeding problems, the wisest thing to do, is to have it excised with a margin to the sides., and at least half a centometer deep....in that manner, it can be analyzed at the microscope by the pathologist, and bboth You and your doctos will be able to sleep at night again without worries of a melanoma, growing in your axilla.....
Better safe than sorry..
I advise you to have that mle excised.,..and properly analized... better not to guess (that would be the worst thing to do)...
Remember that, the external appearance of a mole, tells us nothing about its istructure, nor changes in the cells of the mole.....when they happen, if they happen, it would be only too late.....
