A member asked:
How can a nodular melanoma start off as a raised mole ?? i hear that if a melanoma is raised that means that it has already reached an advanced stage?

Please bring this up with your Dermatologist who knows your medical history and can give you a through exam. If you don't have confidence in your Doctor see another for a second opinion.
