Are Thick Moles On Collar Bone Signs Of Cancer?

Hello,
I have a mole on my collar bone about 3/4 the size of a quarter, that I've had since I was a young girl, I am now 26. A couple years ago I asked my family doctor if I needed to have it removed. He said unless it really bothered me I didn't need to as it didn't look suspicious, just a little larger than normal. I've since decided I might want to have it removed. Although now I am quite scared since when I was touching it, a small piece of it came off. It didn't bleed, and almost looked like a scab, which is what half of the moles texture feels like now. Also if you press on it, it feels a lot thicker on one side. Could this be a sign of something serious like cancer?

Hi welcome toHCM
I have gone thru your query regarding moles

I think you doctor was right , moles are very common and benign (non-cancerous). These conditions include moles, freckles, skin tags, benign lentigines, and seborrheic keratoses

Most moles appear in early childhood and during the first 30 years of a person's life. It is normal to have between 10-40 moles by adulthood.

If at all , the mole is found to be cancerous, and only a small section of tissue was taken, the dermatologist will remove the entire mole by cutting out the entire mole and a rim of normal skin around it, and stitching the wound closed.

Moles may occour due to potassium deficiency, faulty food habits, lack of exercise worry ,tention , anger Eat foods that contain potassium like apple, cider, vinegar. A balanced diet high in vitamins A, vitamin E and vitamin C can improve and will boost the immune system and fight off the skin wart. This includes a diet rich in fibers ,cabbage, garlic, limes, broccoli, oranges and bananas.
Aloe vera juice 25-30 mlearly morning.
Turmeric powder a level T spoon with cup of hot milk
Fried, fast foods tea coffee alcohol mental worry , tention anger and Constipation should be avoided .
Applyfresh Aloe vera jelly on the mole . Repeat 3-4 times a day for 7-8 days
If you have any doubt or find any chage ,you must consult your treating doctor and discuss your case

Hope this help solve your query . Take care All the best
