Moles are the unwanted extra growth on your skin, usually black or brown. Moles may appear anywhere on the skin, in groups, or alone. As you grow some hair develops into moles. It is normal to have 10 to 15 moles till you attain adulthood. Some moles appear in early childhood, some occur by the time you turn 25. With time some moles change, and some also disappear.
Moles are of two types-
-
Congenital Nevi are the moles that are present at birth. This condition occurs in 1 out of 100 people.
-
Dysplastic Nevi are moles that look different in shape from a common mole and are larger than average.
Both types of moles have the potential to develop into melanoma(cancer). Dysplastic nevi have a slightly more possibility to develop into cancer. Get yourself urgently checked for the moles if they look different.
