What Causes Black Moles On Legs?

Over the last month I have discovered 5 extremely small black moles on my legs. I honestly can t remember seeing them before. They are flat and perfectly round. There doesn t appear to be anything unusual other than my not seeing them before. Should I be worried? I m 25, female, with no family history of melanoma.

Appearance of more than 5 moles on your leg within a month is not usually considered to be a normal sign. Please visit a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and check up. Thank you
