Is it a dysplastic Nevus or melanoma
My husband has an abnormally shaped cluster of moles on his back, which he says has been with him since teen years. It's dark brown-brown and is same size and shape for years. I am worried it could be melanoma, but I haven't shared my concerns with anyone yet. I have images of the nevus and am wondering if I should be worried or it's safe to assume it's nothing major
