How can you detail if a mole is cancer?

How can you detail if a mole is cancer?
the only mode to know for sure is to have the mole biospied. but here are some things to look for(it's call the ABCD rule):
Asymmetry-nonsymetrical or uneven contained by shape
Border-notched, uneven borders
Color-different shades of black,brown, suntan
Diameter-usually greater than 6mm
other things to look for are a change contained by any of the following:
color, surface, texture, sensation, and surrounding skin.
again the only mode to know for sure is to have a biopsy.
If it get bigger and/or darker.
walk to the docter
the only sure process is have it removed and biopsied.
Suspicious moles will evidently change within size and or color, will often be asymetric
you really entail to go to the dr to find out for sure
A few ways to update if a mole is cancer or if it should be looked at by a doctor are,
- if it is bigger that an eraser on a pencil
- if it is more than one color
- if it is not symmetrical
