What Causes A Small Tan Coloured Mark On Top Of Small Toe?

A small tan coloured mark has just appeared on the top of my small toe. I am not long back from Portugal which is where I first noticed the mark. It has been there for around 7 days. I am getting it checked out but I am just wondering if this could be something worse than a common mole? Can moles just appear? It is all the same colour and is about 5mm long and 3mm in width.

Hello,

Yes, moles can appear without signs prior. You should not be worried so much. If it becomes problematic than talk with your doctor to see it closely.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
