I was born with a birthmark on my buttock region.It resembled a smeared frecle with two little freckles around it.Last year or so it started to bleed after i noticed it was raised a bit and i poked around it.But it has not healed at all and it scabs over then falls off but remains red until it scabs over again.I have also noticed that the surrounding area has gotten red and has a darker pigmentation with some ragged edges.I have a picture but because of the area it is in didnt post it I was going to have it removed a few months back but missed appt.Now I am worried as I am getting lumps all over now and then.Has anyone heard of this? and do u think I should be truley concerned. My mom had cervical and ovarian cancer but not skin cancer.

Dear Lexie3699,
You should definitely get to see a doctor right away and give him/her the timeline of when you've had the first mark and when you noticed the others showing up and stuff. It's important to do this sooner rather than later because IF it winds up being something harmful to your body, you need to catch it while it's still easy to deal with. On the other hand, if it winds up being nothing to worry about, wouldn't you rather know sooner rather than spending all kinds of time not knowing and worrying? I hope you are well.
