Yes: Melanoma can cause burning and pain, particularly when it grows deeper into the skin. A mole should never itch, burn, or cause pain. When it does, that is a sure sign that you should see your doctor to have it evaluated.

Melanoma: Signs of melanoma in an existing mole include changes in: elevation, such as thickening or raising of a previously flat mole. Surface, such as scaling, erosion, oozing, bleeding, or crusting. Surrounding skin, such as redness, swelling, or small new patches of color around a larger lesion (satellite pigmentations). Sensation, such as itching, tingling, or burning.
