A bit of advice please  I have a mole that seems to have become raised and bumpy but my main concern is it has become very itchy I seem to be scratching it day and night looks a bit pinkish but is white on the borders not fussed about the colour but it does itch a lot recently any advice would be great thank you

    Hi Emma,

    Any mole that changes (colour or size or becomes itchy) should be checked out by your GP. In most cases it's found to be something innocent but it needs checking, sooner rather than later. Your GP may do a telephone consultation & ask you to email photos of the mole so they can decide if it looks OK or needs a dermatologist to take a look at it. Good luck & please let us know how you get on,
