If moles grow is does it 100% mean that its canser?


Dont all moles grow? Because people with big moles, dont they slowly grow? Because i dont think people just wake up with a huge mole on them do they? So im just wondering if a mole grows, it means that its canser.

nothing is 100% but you should see a doctor, and no I know alot of people that have moles that change that aren't cancer it's just safer to get it removed before it becomes cancerous

Not necessarily, but only a doctor can tell for sure. Go see one.

It depends but if your curious just go and check to your doctor to be more specific about that.

It doesn't mean it's cancer - but you should definitely see a dermatologist anyway. They will usually want to "watch" your mole(s) for any changes that COULD be cancer.

all moles grow. If the edges get irregular so it's not round anymore, or if the color looks bluish, then you get it checked. Moles are almost never cancerus.

it did for me, if you're woorried about it get it checked

no not always. if they change in size or color contact your doctor
even then it might not be cancer and if it is it can be removed.

The rule of thumb is changing 2 of the following list means a trip to the doctor
-size The doctor may not recall this one
-shape
-colour dark brown or red.
I went when 2 changed in a few months and all was well.

There's no 100% in medicine.
But it 100% means you should consult a doctor.

no if they f\turn a 1certain color they check in alab to see if it maligmant or not
