What should I do I'm scared cause I think I might have skin cancer?

So like I had this ugly mole on my tummy and my mom saw it and she was like, “thats weird, I never seen that before and I don’t like the way it looks.”. (btw she is a registered nurse), anyways she got me a appointment with a dermatologist and she been like talking to my aunts on the phone about it. I have been curious so I went online and I searched skin cancer and my mole is an exact description of skin caner. and I’m really scared and I don’t know what to do. Can someone tell me something I can do to keep my mind off it? (btw I’m 14)

Answer #1

if you think it really is cancer get to a doctor or hospital its better to be safe than sorry at then end of the day I dont wanna worry you but what if it is cancer and you just take your mind off it then youll feel foolish so get to a doctor or hospital ASAP

Answer #2

Your really young the odds are you are just over reacting. Try to occupie your mind watch a movie play a game read a book.

Answer #3

Don’t be scared. It’ll be alright. I had a sore on my leg that turned out to be skin cancer. I went into the hospital, had a simple operation and that was that.

Answer #4

If it’s caught early then it usually isn’t fatal. Also a lot of suspicious looking moles are not dangerous forms of skin cancers and not harmful. Relax and be patient until your trip to the doctor. Stressing is just going to make you sick and won’t help at all.
