A member asked:

Boyfriend has red moles, should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cherry angiomas: It sounds like you're describing cherry angiomas. These are extremely common little collections of blood vessels that you get more of over time. They are in no way harmful. However, if you notice any moles that have multiple colors or are changing in size and shape, he should be evaluated by a dermatologist.

I picked at a preexisting mole on my shoulder, and now it is inflamed and darker, and the skin around it is red. Is this something to be concerned about? Or was it probably just from picking at it. Also, it didnt itch or hurt before?
