Keep a watch

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photograph.
It's looking normal but there is variation in color.
The boundary is light brown while centre is dark.
This is usually seen in atypical moles.
Just keep a watch .
If there is sudden increase in size of pain of bleed in mole you must visit a dermatologist.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
