Moles: what you should know

Every person has spots on their body that we call moles. What kind of defects are these on the skin and are they harmful?

A mole is a collection of pigment cells on the skin, in the form of round dots or bulges, the encyclopedic name is nevus. They come in different types, it depends on the diameter of the moles. They are classified as safe for health and dangerous. If the spot's diameter exceeds one and a half centimeters, then you need to see a doctor, and, moreover, as soon as possible, it is likely that you have a dangerous neoplasm.

Also, moles can become dangerous after a change in their structure. This happens when a person stays in the sun for a very long time. The fact is that ultraviolet rays greatly harm the skin, they lead to irreversible changes in the body of the mole. This process can serve as the beginning for the development of oncological tumors. This disease is called melanoma, a skin cancer. People fall into such a risk zone.:

- with a lot of freckles and age spots on the body;

- if there are a lot of moles and they exceed the permissible diameter;

- blonde-haired, blue-eyed people (if you have such acquaintances, you will notice that they have a lot of moles);

- people with very fair skin.

But in order to protect yourself from such dangers, you should follow very simple rules: sunbathe only with protective equipment, do not stay in the sun for a long time, and do not be under the influence of the sun from 12 to 16 o'clock in the afternoon, since this is the peak of solar activity.

Signs of melanoma may include symptoms such as:

- increase or decrease of the mole in diameter;

- cracking of the nevus surface;

- itching near the birthmark;

- change the color of the surface.

All these signs only indicate that your mole is in a state of activity, and if you do not consult a doctor in a timely manner, the consequences may not be very pleasant.

The meaning of moles is often described, depending on their position on the human body. Where this widespread myth comes from is very easy to explain. In the 17th century, the fashion for "flies" was popular. This technique, which was used by the ladies, was intended to indicate the state of affairs of the heart.

So, the fly under the eye meant that the lady's heart was free and she was ready for new affairs, the fly on the right side, near the nostril, meant that the woman was married, above the upper lip, it gave out a flirt, and in the middle of the cheek, that the lady did not need a relationship. The "flies" were drawn using a black pencil, and they were very similar to moles.

After a couple of centuries, the meaning of the flies, like the flies themselves, disappeared. Instead, people started coming up with meanings for moles in certain places.

This is how most legends appear, but these are legends, and we don't necessarily have to believe in them. Moles are cute when they're harmless, and it takes a lot of work.
