suspicious raised mole on the neck, 2.5mm
Would appreciate any advice about the mole in the attached image (about 2.5mm wide so far, raised). Made an appointment with the doctor but any info would be great in the meantime. Thank you!
Hello! My best advice is what you are already doing, seeing a doctor. I would be prepared to answer questions relating to how long this has been there. Your dermatologist may want to know if this is something that has changed in appearance, size, or color. I had skin cancer myself and I did as much research prior to the appointment as possible. I would read up on anything that you think might be relevant to what you are seeing on your skin. This might not be a big help, but I wanted to encourage you that you are seeing a professional.

...I think you are right on track--you've become aware of it through paying careful attention to your skin and have made an appointment. I am including some information that might be helpful as you do those self-exams and as you wait to see your doctor.
