Question : Hi, the other week I went to the dermatologist to check a mole, and I forgot to ask about a mole under my armpit and one I just found above my armpit. I was wondering if you could take a look, thanks :)

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you.
I am Dr kakkar (Dermatologist and Venereologist). I have noted your concern and I have viewed the images.

Both of them are pretty much benign looking - well defined, symmetrical, uniform XXXXXXX colored, flat, round and small sized nevi.
