A member asked:
Can a skin coloured nodular melanoma change colour?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Of course it may, which is not a good sign. Probability of Melanoma is vert low at your age of 17, but anything is possible, Please let a dermatologist look at the lesion, it may just be a benign mole, which can also change colors.
