Yes you can: See a dermatologist asap. Penile cancers are notoriously bad. The earlier the intervention, the better the outcome. Good luck from nyc.

New moles: Any new mole, particularly one that is dark and has irregular borders needs to be shown to a dermatologist as soon as possible to rule out melanoma.
