Hi, I didn't really know if I should post this thread here, but being Cycling related (sort of) i was interested to know if anyone has noticed any moles appearing on their skin with the vast amount of sun exposure us cyclists have during the summer, is it anything to worry about?
Last year I spent hours a day on the bike all through spring and summer, stupidly never used any suncream because I found it uncomfortable with sweating etc, plus I have olive skin so I don't tend to burn.....I just turned very brown! Lol.
This year I haven't been out on the bike much at all due to some fatigue issues (burnout) I'm trying to deal with and my skin is now quite pale since I've been mostly indoors. What I've noticed though is I've developed 4-5 extra moles on each arm (had only a few before this), even one has appeared on my calf which I thought was odd.
Since I'm no longer on the bike and the appearance of all these new moles I'm now cautious about sun exposure (if not somewhat paranoid! Lol), I try not to sit purposely in the sun (still don't use suncream tbh), are the new moles anything to worry about?
Thanks in advance.
