Moles (Nevus pigmentary)

Nevus pigmentary
Moles (nevi pigmentary) are very easy to recognize: they are brown and black contours very marked. Most are small, but there is no shortage of which occupy large areas, some have hair.

Since it is known that the explosive growth of malignant melanoma, a serious skin cancer, there is great concern about this type of macules. It is true that some of these spots can be congenital malignant over time, although the majority remains unchanged.

As recommended when a child is born with a mole is consulting with the pediatrician or dermatologist. The current trend is to operate which may become pathological before the child reaches six years, although this depends on each case.

Anyway, provided there is an injury of this kind, it is necessary to observe if you experience any change.
If there is a change (growth or any discomfort), it should go to the doctor without delay.
