A member asked:
What if the skin around a mole hurts like a bruise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bruise: A mole may become irritated due to a number of factors and appear "bruised". Any change in a mole or around a mole should be evaluated by a dermatologist to make sure the area is not indicative of something more serious.
