A member asked:
Can you do a watch and wait approach to a mole? especially one that has shown no changes in 3 weeks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
My advice is that if this skin lesion stands out as being very different from any other lesions in your skin, consult a dermatologist for accurate diagnosis&advice.. This will also give you a great deal of peace of mind.
