A member asked:
Have been told conflicting things - can benign moles grow larger over time? thought they can become more raised/dome like?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See doctor: If a mole becomes larger, irregular, nodular, ulcerates or bleed, have it checked out by a doctor. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low fat milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
