Can a skin dot be a symptom or sign of cancer?


By skin dot, I mean a normal black skin dot that people get on their skin....
Anyways, I suddenly got this dot on the most unusual place on my body... I know this sounds funny and I must be retarded for asking this online, but can this be a sign of cancer? Naturally, I have quite a few dots all over my body, but this time, it kind of scares me...

If in doubt, see a dermatologist.
Especially if its changed shape, color, size etc.

Are you talking about a mole?? If a new one has just popped up you should have it checked. It doesnt mean cancer at all. I get them on my shoulders from the sun, they're tiny spots. My doctor said they aint dangerous.
They can be dangerous if they change colour or get really lumpy
