My mom had that same thing on her face years ago and had to have radiation..which in turn zapped alot of her nerves in her teeth needing quite a few root canals. But she's fine and so am I so I'm glad I went and had it checked out.

When they just appear.. get them checked..and wear sunscreen which I never have.
Oh my. Hugs to your mom


I know a couple of people who had a mole removed from their face but they had to fake that it was hurting them/was itchy or the doc wouldn't do it. And it was also considered cosmetic. It shoulda gotten biopsy-ed and checked if it was cancerous or not.

My friends mom was getting her age spots treated on her face(with the freeze burn method just like for removing warts) cuz they could turn into melanoma.
