Do moles cause skin cancer ?

Moles do become cancerous from time to time, however they generally give you a good warning. If a mole grows, changes color, begins to itch, or just 'feel funny' go to a doctor and have them look at it. They will remove it and biopsy it. While it may sound a bit excessive, melanoma is one of the worst cancers you can get, and it often started by nothing more than exposure to sunlight.
