Is it normal for a mole to just appear on your skin?

Mole: Moles on the skin are very common. If the growth is enlarging or changing, then see your doctor and have it removed.

Yes: More likely, it's been there for some time, but you've only just noticed it. If there are unusual contour or color irregularities, please get it checked out by your doctor.
