Yes, a skin tag can grow from a mole, but it’s uncommon. Skin tags are usually harmless, but since the mole has been there since birth and changed recently, it’s a good idea to have it checked by a dermatologist.

A doctor can:

Examine it closely to make sure it’s safe.
Remove the skin tag if needed.
Check for any unusual changes in the mole.

Could be a skin tag or a wart or something else. Best to get checked out by your local dermatologist.
