Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination. If the mole doubles in size, becomes irregular in size, shape or color, bleeds, ulcerates or develops a nodule, see a doctor.

Not on this forum: Hard to tell a good vs. bad mole sometimes, but some moles are more worrisome than others. A dermatologist can look for, examine, and biopsy suspicious moles. Concerning signs are: asymmetry (one half of the mole growing faster than the other half), border irregular, more than 1 color in the mole, diameter more than 6mm, and the mole is elevated above the surrounding skin.
