Suspicious mole, sudden appearance?

In addition to the post I made recently about a patch of red/scaly skin on my lower leg, around a month ago I developed a mole (?) on my ankle that definitely wasn't there before. My ankle is aching when I put pressure on that side. I've attached a picture, would welcome your thoughts. I'm seeing my GP in a few weeks to follow-up my patch, should I try to go sooner?

I would say yes, try to get earlier appt and stress to any gatekeeper reception staff that it's because of sudden mole appearance as it should be taken seriously.

Not what you're looking for?

I'm 16. This mole has been here a year, no trouble or itching. Does this look normal?
