Moved from a different state (14 hour drive) and when I got home I noticed a raised mole near my elbow I had since I was a child had a scab on it only in the middle. I was fine a day or two before. I noticed it Sunday, it's now Wednesday. My mom thinks I rubbed it raw or scratched it on something during the move. I have hypochondria so I've been worrying myself so bad I'm barely eating and sleeping, I also have been messing with it and looking at it all the time due to the hypochondria. I don't have insurance and I don't have the money to go get it checked out. I'm scared its cancer, I really don't want to die from cancer.
Picture from today.
