Mole feels and looks different than others

Great that you do skin checks. For those of us who have many moles or other lesions such as seborrheic keratoses, finding a lesion that is different than those around it or than all the others should send up a red flag and push us to get it checked by a dermatologist. Please get this mole checked. Let us know what you find out from your dermatologist.

@katkir Thank you for your reply. And, welcome to Mayo clinic Connect! Do you experience seborrheic keratoses? As a maiignant melanoma survivor [surgery in 2008] I am always on the lookout for issues, and recently had several invasive squamous cell cancers removed. In a few weeks my semi-annual skin check appointment will no doubt uncover more actinic keratoses, and perhaps more spots to biopsy. One can never be too careful!
