Unlikely: It is not feasible to know what the lesions are but, it is very unlikely to be melanoma. Try over the counter treatment for pimples and if that does not help, it would be prudent to see a doctor.

I had a sudden mole show up on my smallest toe, I'm not sure how long it's been there but I would say pretty recently. Within a few months. I have pictures of it. Problem is I can't see a dermatologist around here for at least a month or more.... Is there anything I can do in the meantime? My dad has/still has melanoma spots show up all the time so it is concerning to me. Brown center slightly raised bumpy area in it/tanish red outside of that very irregular border. Mole on toe?
