And now, time for a Coughy Break!

Welcome back to Coughy Break!

Skin moles - we all have them. But what's a worrying mole? What does one look like. What does one feel like? And how do we know that that really large irritating mole isn't a bad one? And what actually is a mole?

In this episode Dr Geoff Hamp and Dr Sam McGinley discuss the topic of moles.

Dr Geoff and Dr Sam look at the facts and give you information about what the different sorts of moles are, what risk factors increase the risk of that mole turning into something more serious, how to mole map, and that contrasting advice about vitamin d and uv exposure.

If you have any suggestions for topics you would like covered, any comments or ideas, or even just want to say hello then email us at the show at [email protected]

Sit back, and enjoy a Coughy Break!
