Skin Cancer Treatment
Skin cancers are visible.
Early symptoms of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) may seem quite minor, but a doctor should be consulted about any suspicious spot immediately. The signs to look for are: a crusty, non-healing sore or a small lump that is red, pale, or pearly in color, a new spot, freckle, or mole changing in color, thickness, or shape over a period of several weeks or months.
Look for spots that are dark brown to black, red, or blue-black.
If you see anything that looks suspicious, have a doctor check your skin immediately. If skin cancer is detected early, it is highly treatable.
