Question : Hi,

I have a few birthmarks (very small on my abdomen) that are kind of itchy and slightly raised. Any ideas on what is causing them to be itchy?

Hello
Thanks for the query and photograph.
It is looking like an eczematous change in the mole.
There is nothing to worry.
Apply a mild steroid cream like fluticasone for 7 days you will get relief.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
