  7. I HAVE A MOLE ON MY RIGHT...

I have a mole on my right big toe causing a tingling sensation in the upper half of the entire foot, could this be melanoma?

Asked By:asdqws in Kissimmee, FL

I was really worried so i looked it up, and the first thing that showed up was MELANOMA. I've told my parents many times that it is definitely a sign of foot melanoma, and they said they would take me to the doctor but i just can't wait!!! All i can think about now is how by the time they do take me, how much it could have spread. I could lose my TOE or even my ENTIRE FOOT if I don't act quick!!!!

Sarah B. Sawyer, MD says:

I think the first issue is to confirm that the mole is benign. This can be confirmed with a biopsy. This does not mean that the scar will be unattractive. After a small amount of numbing medicine is injected, a good dermatologist can shave this flush with the surface of the skin,...
