A raised mole that hurts a little can be caused by inflammation, infection or cancer.
1. Inflammation: When there is a break around a raised mole or frequent friction irritates it, it is very easy to cause inflammation. Inflammation usually causes the mole to become noticeably raised and is accompanied by a painful sensation. Topical mupirocin ointment is recommended to reduce inflammation.
2. Infection: When there is a breakage around the mole and it is not treated in time, it may be infected by pathogenic bacteria, causing the mole to be raised and painful. It is recommended to use tetracycline ointment for anti-inflammatory treatment and clean the affected area well.
3. Cancer: When a mole becomes cancerous, it will lead to hyperplastic lesions. Hyperplastic lesions make the nevus raised obviously and accompanied by strong pain. It is recommended to consult a doctor for treatment.
Patients who have raised moles with pain should go to the hospital in time to find out the cause of the disease and treat the symptoms.
