Question : Hello...I’m attaching two images of the back of my scalp. As you can see, there appears to be a mole in the area which I have circled. I can feel that it is slightly raised in that area, and I asked the Physicians Assistant at my dermatologists office to look at the spot, and she indicated it was a mole that looks normal. Can you please take a look as well and tell me if it appears to be a normal looking mole? Thank you!
