Is that mole dangerous? How to spot early signs of skin cancer

The ABCDE method helps in detection of melanoma (which is a serious form of skin cancer). The ABCDE method stands for:
– Asymmetry: One half of the mole doesn’t match the other or irregular mole shape.
– Border: Irregular, notched, or blurred edges of the mole.
– Colour: Multiple shades (brown, black, red) of the mole.
– Diameter: If the mole is larger than 6mm (pencil eraser size) in size.
– Evolving: Changes in shape, colour, or size of the mole.
If a mole shows any of these signs, then do take it seriously. Visit a dermatologist to get it checked.
