'Weird' mole: In short, yes - not to make you panic, but any odd skin lesion must be seen by a competent dermatologist - its the best and right way to address this.

I picked at a preexisting mole on my shoulder, and now it is inflamed and darker, and the skin around it is red. Is this something to be concerned about? Or was it probably just from picking at it. Also, it didnt itch or hurt before?
