5. Weird Moles
Keep an eye on moles. If one develops as a dark brown spot with darker speckles or an existing mole changes color, size, feel or bleeds, see a doctor immediately.
Changing moles may be a sign of melanoma. Melanoma is an aggressive and deadly cancer. Melanoma risk is a combination of genetics, UV caused mutations, and unknown factors.

- B (border irregularity)
- C (color multiplicity)
- D (diameter greater than ¼ inch)
- E (evolution or change in size and/or shape)
