There’s nothing classy about the name of this non-cancerous growth: mole.
These ugly landmarks can suddenly appear anywhere on the body. While they normally don’t pose a health risk, they are still a nuisance.
So what are they and why did they set up camp on your body? They are an accumulation of skin cells produced by melanin.
These pigmented clumps of skin can be black, brown or even flesh colored. How did they come to be? Often, it’s genetic. Other factors are sun exposure and hormonal changes.
If you notice moles that don’t fit the colors mentioned, and have asymmetrical shapes and borders, consult your dermatologist immediately.
Some moles have a different agenda; one day they just pack up and go away. Most people leave them alone, unless they are prominent and cause emotional discomfort. Moles are often removed for cosmetic purposes but the procedure can be painful, and create side effects.
