CHANGING MOLE: Sounds like a regular good mole (benign melanocytic nevus) has been traumatized. However, any skin lesion that changes should be checked by the Doctor. He might even biopsy it if necessary. Make an appointment with your doctor and keep an eye on the changing lesion. Changes to look for: Asymmetry of both halves, irregular Borders,Colors are changing,Diameter enlarging or <6mm, Evolving:changing.
