any melanoma is a dynamic situation, changing microscopically during its course. Should you be dxed with a melanoma, you should have it treated/removed asap.

If the top of a melanoma is rubbed off and all that is left is a black spot. could the melanoma spread internally without regrowing in the area where the raised mole got rubbed off?
