A member asked:

Hi, there is a small brown spot on my scalp and i am not sure what is it. is there anything that yall think it could be. i am kind of freaking out but it doesnt hurt or anything its just a small brown spot on my scalp?

It could be a mole. You may watch and wait. If the mole doubles in size, becomes irregular in size, shape or color, bleeds, ulcerates or develops a nodule, see a doctor. Wish you good health! Get HPV vaccine.
