Is There Any Chance That The Moles With White Stuff In It To Be Cancer?
I have a mole on the back of my neck. It isn't painful or anything, but sometimes its gets enlarged and if I squeeze it, thick white stuff comes out of it. This has happened twice now, I have had moles removed in the past and have had them biopsied, and they all have come back benign. I have a few spots that I am to watch to see if they get any bigger. I have fair skin and skin cancer runs in my family. Should I be concerned with the mole that has white stuff in it?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion it is nothing but sebaceous cyst and white fluid must be sebum.
But better to get done clinical examination first.
Since you are having strong family history of skin cancer, I advice you to get done skin biopsy again.
Mostly it will come negative for cancer but better to rule out this.
