Mole

I have discovered a black mole

I have sent pic to GP

Can I send you a pic please?

  • Hi Jom and thank you for your post.

    I am sorry to inform you that we cannot accept pictures of moles.

    Cancer Research UK mostly funds research therefore I am afraid we aren't a hospital and don't have access to specialist doctors who can give a medical opinion.

    You are right to keep an eye on any moles you have and assess them regularly. Not all moles that change are cancerous.  Here is a guide to help you assess your moles and this is the risks and causes of skin cancer.

    I hope your GP gets back to you soon, as I appreciate the waiting is difficult.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,

    Tina
