Skin Cancer :: Mole Getting Bigger - Melanoma?

A few years ago I noticed 3 relatively small moles on my pubic area and didn't think much of it. But it grew much bigger and there are another 2 new moles in that area. I'm worried that it could be melanoma as the size is rather big and it's black but I'm too embarrassed to go to a doctor because the mole is at my inner vagina lip while the other 4 are beside the anus. I'm so worried, please can any doctor here help to see if this seem like melanoma, from the pictures attached?

Dermatology :: Growing Mole - Nodular Melanoma?

I'm a 23 year old female with light skin. I have had this mole on my lower back for many years and it has always been slightly raised. Upon examining it recently after not looking at it for many years I feel it might be more raised then it was before. Its about 5-6mm in diameter, does not itch or bleed or anything. I'm not entirely sure if its changed but I think it might have. Is it possible for a mole to grow naturally? Should I be concerned about this, could it be nodular melanoma? I read nodular melanoma occurs in a new skin growth 97% of the time I'm not sure if this was true. I have a picture posted....

Cancer :: Lump In Groin After Toe Amputated Due To Melanoma

I was diagnosed with melanoma in 2006 and had to have my toe amputated. I have been fine since, however I have been worried about a lump in my groin. The thing is....this morning it's now a bit smaller. Should I assume it's nothing serious since it has reduced in size, and no need to get it checked by dermatologist?

Skin :: Mole Getting Bigger And Darker - Melanoma?

I am a girl, I have blonde hair, blue eyes, and my skin isn't pale but more "golden" colored. I generally tan pretty well in the sun and usually only get burned on my face and shoulders. I have never used a tanning bed before. however, I have a mole that's about a centimeter away from where my arm pit meets my chest that's concerning. It's much larger and darker than my other moles, it's a little bigger than a pencil eraser and is very dark brown and a teeny bit raised. The edges are chestnut colored and a little blurry, but it is still shaped like a circle (symmetrical). I am noticing it more often now than it the past, which makes me wonder if it has grown. I would get it looked at by a doctor, however the mole has always been covered by a swimsuit and to my knowledge, has never seen the sunlight. Does this mean that it couldn't be skin cancer?

Skin :: Melanoma - Dark Area Under Toenail?

My husband has a dark area under his toenail, that goes into the cuticle. it has been there for quite sometime. It's not a bruise, and it hasn't grown out with his toenail, I just took a good look at it today under a magnifying glass. I moved the cuticle back some and you can see that it is embedded into the tissue. I am concerned it could be Melanoma, He is 63 years old. This is my first post on here, please excuse me if I didn't post this in the right place. I took a picture of his toe, is there a place on this site that I can post it, to get any comments.

Skin :: Breast Cyst Or Cancer - Red Skin Bump?

On my right breast, I have a red skin bump. This bump is not in my breast tissue, just in my skin. It at first, looked like an ingrown hair, so I left it alone. But it's been a few months, and its still not gone and looks worse. It is red and round/oval shaped. If I squeeze it a yellowish puss will come out and maybe bleed. I have done exams on myself and never feel any lumps inside my breast. I"m really scared! I don't know what a cyst looks like and have never had one before.
