A member asked:
Can a benign mole that was scratched off come back after a few months? i have a mole on my arm that was scratched off and now it's slowly returning.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it can.: The important thing to consider if a growth recurs is the possibility that a benign lesion could become malignant. It should be biopsied if it has returnted
