Should I get this mole checked?
I have recently noticed that I have a mole and am wondering if I should get it checked out by a doctor?
Online it says that you should check for symmetry, color, size, and the border. My mole is not symmetrical, the borders fade out, and it is bumpy. However, they say that this kind is usually skin cancer and it comes from not wearing sun screen. However, I know that it has never seen sunlight, much less burned badly or often. I was wondering is I should be concerned about it?

Get it checked out. It is probably nothing but there are some syndromes and conditions that can make you extremely susceptible to skin cancer even if you rarely get sunburn. That and it does not take much at all to get skin cancer necessarily. It can't hurt for you to see a dermatologist. Good Luck!

It's really good you are aware of the moles on your body. Everyone should be doing that because cancer can appear anywhere on your skin. It is hard to tell since I can't actually see it, but if it looks concerning tell your mom about it and maybe make an appt. to the dermatologist. Good for you. Good luck.
