Is removing moles yourself THAT dangerous?

Question

ive removed a couple before. basically dabbing on apple cider vinegar on them with Q-tips. apparently this can cause cancer. if so, do i have cancer then? i never removed huge moles, just the size of about this> 0

Answer 1

u can get cancer from jus about anything....but i dont think u have it

Answer 2

yes and if u do it constanly as in it MUST BE removed it could be a disorder of some kind....you need to consult a dermatologist if u want them removed, as u said if u remove them urself it COULD cause cancer but either way plz stop removing them urself.

Eat lots of fruit  like veggies to prevent cancer if u don't already have it which u probaly don't.

Answer 3

I heard that it is bad, because moles can have roots that grow deep under the skin, and if you just cut off the outer part, you are irritating it, and moles are prone to be cancerous anyway, so you shouldn't irritate them.  I also heard if you have hair growing out of a mole you shouldn't pluck it, for the same reason.  Yeah, right.  I'm going to walk around with a hairy mole on my face.

Answer 4

I hope not, because I do it myself also! I bought a scalpole and do it myself, instead of having to pay a doctor to do it!

Answer 5

what moles are you talking about, the ones that stick out, or the ones that are just on your skin????? and how did you remove it, only by dabbing it with apple cider vinegar?? or how??
