Dermatologist: Dermatologists are specialists on all skin conditions and can evaluate your lesion and/or mole on your leg. They can let you know if the lesion needs to be biopsied to see what it is.

Hard to know: Without an exam it is hard to answer your question. It is concerning when moles change - change in size, color, become irregularly shaped, itch, bleed. Most moles are relatively easy to remove and test. Please see your primary doctor or a surgeon to see if this needs to be removed and tested.
