If it is causing you pain, you need to have a dermatologist look at it. Arrange for a consultation as soon as possible. It may not be cancer, but it may be something that should be treated.

I repeat - changes in birthmarks should be looked at by an expert. Please try to see a dermatologist and let us know the results.
