Is it better for a mole to be flat or raised

Moles are very common on our body. No matter who you are, you will have one or two moles on your body. Moles themselves have no effect on the human body, but in Chinese feudal studies, people pay more attention to the position and whether moles are flat or convex. So, is it better for moles to be flat or convex? Here are some specific explanations for them.

1. Pigmented moles can be flat or raised, and are generally benign. If there are obvious changes, such as enlargement, darkening, or irregular protrusions, it is recommended to go to the hospital for surgery and then do a pathological examination.

2. There is a certain possibility of lesions. It is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination immediately. Guidance: This situation generally has the possibility of melanoma, which is a malignant tumor, so it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination to prevent any possible complications.

3. If a mole is simply raised, it cannot prove the possibility of cancer. It is a benign mass formed by nevus cells under the dermis and can be divided into three categories. There are junctional nevi, mixed nevi and intradermal nevi. Generally, the nevi are higher than the skin surface and have no abnormal manifestations. It is recommended that patients observe and treat them first. If you are still worried, you can go to the hospital's dermatology department for a check-up.

4. If this flat mole becomes raised, you should observe closely to see if there are any pain or itching symptoms. It is best to go to the dermatology department of the hospital for a check-up to see if the mole has become malignant. If not, you can leave it alone. If you feel it only affects the appearance, you can also use medication and laser treatment.

5. The basic lesions are generally macules, papules, nodules, verrucous or papillary with a diameter of less than 6 mm. They are mostly round, often symmetrically distributed, with clear boundaries, regular edges and uniform color. The number varies, from single, several to dozens, and some damaged areas may have one to several short and thick black hairs. Due to the different pigment content of nevus cells, clinically they may appear brown, tan, blue-black, black or normal skin color, light yellow, or dark red. Sun exposure can increase the number of moles in exposed areas.

6. According to the distribution of nevus cells, it is divided into junctional nevus, intradermal nevus and mixed nevus. Pigmented nevi are unstable and often undergo a growth and evolution process from maturity to aging. Most moles start out as small, flat junctional nevi, then develop into compound nevi and finally become intradermal nevi. When a junctional nevus becomes malignant, there is often mild pain in the local area.
