Answer:

The mother should observe if the mole has changes in size, shape and color. If these changes occur, the mole may be a melanoma.

Step-by-step explanation:

Often the first signs of melanoma are the appearance of a pigmented change in the skin or changes in size, shape or color of a pre-existing spot or blemish. However, the diagnosis can only be confirmed by a dermatologist (a doctor who specializes in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of skin, hair, mucosa, hair and nail diseases), but if the individual observes the appearance of blemishes or other abnormal things in his or her condition. In skin that has changes in color, size and shape, this individual may be wary of a melanoma.
