Suggest Remedy For Mole On The Stomach

I have a mole for as long as I can remember its on my stomach. Last year I noticed that it nearly doubled with this red area around it. The mole is still dark brown, but surrounded by this red area, whic seems to be growing. My dad died of sqeamacell cancer. Whats the likelihood this is something to be concerned about or just one of those that mimic and is nothing to be worried about?

Hello,
Most of the moles are not cancerous and as per your description it doesn't appear to be the same. But as it is grwoing in size so it is better to get it removed. Go for the histo-pathological examination of the same to have a full assurance.
All the best
