A member asked:

I have a freckle on my leg, not raised but itchy should it be checked out?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Family practice : Any new skin lesion should be checked out. What you describe sounds benign. If you see lesion that is growing changing color or multiple colors, or having irregular borders it needs to be seen right away.
