Know the ABC of checking your moles;
- A – Asymmetry, both halves don’t look the same
- B – Border, the mole has blurred/jagged edges
- C – Colour, the mole has more than one colour or changed colour
- D – Diameter, it is increasing in size
- E – Changes, any changes from size shape or colour
Having one or more of these changes may be harmless. However, Speaking to your GP Surgery as soon as possible will get you the reassurance, advice or referral you may need
