Can Moles Lead To Cancer?

My husband just had a mole removed. The Dr just called to tell us it is cancer and that he will require further surgery around the area very soon. What should we expect next and what is the likelihood that this has spread?.. He did visit the Dr a year ago about this mole,as it looked abnormal to us,but he Dr assured us it was not dangerous looking.. I am very cross a year as gone by,wasted,when our concerns were not taken seriously.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Mole can turn in to malignant melanoma. It is very aggressive cancer. It should be treated as early as possible. Because it is very rapidly spread to near by area. Recent chage in size or colour of mole can give hintababout malignancy. Yoh should go for urgent surgery and chemotherapy.
Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
