Which of the following is a warning sign of cancer involving changes in the skin, such as moles?

• A. Nonhealing Sore
• B. Change In Moles
• C. Bloating
• D. Nagging Cough

Answer: (B)

Noticing changes in the skin, especially in moles, is a warning sign for skin cancer, such as melanoma. A mole that evolves—changing size, shape, color, or border, or becoming irregular or spotted with multiple colors—should raise concern and prompt medical evaluation. This type of change directly reflects skin alterations rather than symptoms from other body parts. The other signs point to cancers in different areas (for example, nonhealing sores can occur with skin cancers but aren’t specific to mole changes; bloating or a persistent cough suggest issues in the abdomen or lungs). If you see a mole that changes in any of these ways, it’s important to have it checked by a clinician promptly.
