Mole ? Cancer

I'm getting really concerned about a mole I have on my leg. My GP saw me on 22nd December and said he was a little concerned but would review me in a month's time and remove it there and then if he had further concerns. Due to getting covid and work I have only just been able to ring to rebook in. I have been told he is retiring and next available appointments with anyone else are from 3rd March onwards. He is the GP who specialised in moles and did the removal surgery so I'm just panicking a little. It won't let me attach the photos I have taken, one from 19th December and one from today. Today's photo does seem a little bigger. Can anyone provide reassurance or have a look at the photo for me? 

  • Hello and thanks for your post

    I'm sorry you are worried about a mole on your leg. I'm afraid our system does not accept photos, and we are unable to make a medical assessment or diagnose anyone.

    You explained that your GP is retiring soon and he is the specialist in the practice that specialises in moles. I would imagine that if your practice was not offering dermatology services for the time being, then another GP should be able to refer you to a dermatologist ( skin specialist) if this is needed.

    I hope you know more about your situation soon.

    Kind regards,

    Celene
