Hi, firstly I haven't yet been to the dr. I thought if I left it might go down but it hasn't. I have a mole just below my ear lobe, tucked into my jaw bone. It has been there for a long time and has had no real change. I haven't been very well recently and scraped my hair up (I usually wear it down) when I did this I noticed it had grown considerably. Not spread but got larger. It's now very round and red looking when before it was light brown. Doctors will not see me until tomorrow.  I am worried sick and google is not being very nice to me at the moment. I have looked at everything it could be but I'm scared with the answers it gives me. I had looked at it many many times in a magnifier mirror and used a torch. Could it be anything else?? It's got a lump under it, stings to touch. I'm 37, not fair skinned, but not olive. Did used to tan easily, not any more. I have dark hair.
