A member asked:

My 7 year old daughter and has a light brown stripe on her thumb. am i paranoid just being paranoid about melanoma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Melanoma is exceedingly rare in kids but it does happen. The description you provided does not suggest that this is. The best way to sort it out is to see a dermatologist for an evaluation.
