I have a skin-cancer looking mole right on my lower lashline?


it's probably like 1/6 of an inch in diameter, it's uneven, and multicolored- shades of light brown to black. It's been there since I was 6 but it's getting bigger and bigger! Right now, I'm 16. I went to a dermatologist but he said he can't do anything about it because it's too close to my eye. I'm afraid it's too late and the skin cancer cells already spread. What should I do?

First of all, go to ANOTHER dermatologist, as a mole that changes shape and color is something that requires attention. More than likely it just needs to be removed, and if a dermatologist doesn't feel comfortable doing something so close to the eye, require them to give you a referral.

It's YOUR health - only YOU know when something is really "different" feeling on your body, so don't stop until you are satisfied!

get a second opinion. If the first dermatologist said he can't do anything about it he must not be concerned that it is skin cancer. If it was skin cancer they wouldn't just leave it there because it's too close to your eye.. Ask your mom to take you to another dermatologist, maybe the next one will know what to do.

try some skin care stuff, like proactive or other things. Go to the doctor and see if there's any type of cream you could use to calm it down a little. If that doesn't work, then you should be proud of who you are and don't worry about it and have fun.

It's really important that you try to get help, try your docter or your hospital, because if it is cancer, you would need help, really soon!

i dont think you can do anything. maybe cut it off at home or something???

GO TO A DOCTOR!!!!! Get some help. That dermatoligist is a retard. Go see ur local doctor and see if what u have is really skin cancer. dont wait any longer!

10 years I kinda doubt it is cancer but you should definitely get it checked out if it is growing. Go to your GP asap!

see another doctor!!! don't stop untill ur 110% sure what it is and have something done about it

go to the doctor hope you dont have it鈾?/div>
