Is this something I should be concerned about? Recently noticed a new mole/tag growth. (Photo)

It's tender and seems to be leaking something. It's on the side on my abdomen. Should I be worried?

This is difficult to answer without pictures. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Moles can be removed with laser, radiowave or shave. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Obvious moles can really make a patient self conscientious and are so easy to remove. The resulting minimal scar is so much better looking than an ugly mole.
