A member asked:
What are the causes of pain and feeling of discomfort on the back around a mole?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Get it checked: It could be that the mole is irritated by friction with your undergarments or other clothing. It is possible that it is infected. Another possibility is that the mole may be an area of skin cancer that is evolving and growing to a depth that is associated with sensory nerve irritation. Get this looked at by your doctor or a dermatologist.
