Common questions
How do I know what my spot is?
Start with its color, size, and location. Those three clues narrow it down quickly.
When should I see a doctor about a spot?
If it changes, bleeds, itches, or will not heal, have it checked promptly.
Should I try to pop a bump?
No. Many bumps are not pimples, and squeezing them can cause scarring or infection.
Can I treat a spot at home?
Many harmless spots can be treated at home once you know what they are.
