This may seem like an elementary question, but I have a raised mole on the back of my neck, right below my hairline. Occasionally when I'm brushing my hair my brush will graze the mole and I feel a sharp pain. Obviously I try to avoid it, but will this aggravate the mole/increase risk of skin cancer?
