What is causing these [moles?] and how do I get rid of them?!


Question: What is causing these [moles!?] and how do I get rid of them!?
They're just those really tiny, pencil tip sized dark brown dots on the skin!.!.!. I have about a dozen small ones on my face, and another 1-2 dozen on my arms/chest, you don't notice them much unless you concentrate but they're definitely there!.!. I think a bunch just came in because I've been outside a lot for this summer, and I tan really easily without trying, about 16 years old by the way, and not sure if they're called moles or not, they definitely look sort of like them though almost like freckles but darker and more moleish!.!.!. I don't think they're cancerous, but how long can I expect them to stay, can I prevent them with sunscreen, and is it possible to get rid of them without a doctor!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
The difference between a mole and a sunspot/freckle is a big one!. If you've got new/chaning moles, especially if you're a sun worshiper, you should see a dermatologist!. New/changing moles is a sign for skin cancer problems -- not sure how you could know if they're cancerous or not -- a doctor only knows by taking a cutting and testing them!. They are likely to not go away on their own, but can fade with time out of the sun, and yes if they're sunspots/freckles, sunscreen does help, but doesn't completely prevent them!.

If they're not moles, and they're just sunspots, you can have them laser treated!. Moles can also be removed surgically (and quite quickly too)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You're right, they are probably from being in the sun alot!. You should always put sunscreen on just to be safe!. I would think that they would just clear up on their own, but if you're concerned you should schedule an appointment with a dermatalogist!.!.!.sometimes you have to wait a long time to get an appointment with them though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like freckles not moles!. If they change in size or color go to a skin doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
