hi valerie...thanks for sharing your problem in this forum..fair people are more prone to sunburn as well as skin cancers..also you got the moles which also have propensity for skin cancer..the projected mole that you got after sunburn may be due to oedema after sunburn..but to be sure i should know about the duration and picture if could be available...if this projected mole is for long duration then it should be removed by plastic surgeon and sent for biopsy...but if soon after sunburn then its due to oedema and you should not be worried..hope you got the answer
