Skin Carcinoma

This cancer is one of the easiest to treat and eliminate if you catch the signs of cancer early.

You must examine your skin at least monthly. If you have a history of skin carcinoma, a weekly self-exam is appropriate, checking for signs of possible cancer. You may have skin carcinoma if you notice,

• Sores that do not heal
• Sores that heal but keep recurring in the same spot
• Skin lesion changes
• Itching, bleeding, and tenderness in specific skin areas
• Changes in skin areas related to size, color, and shape
• Scaly, crusty spot of skin that refuses to go away

• Light or dark-skinned people 

Melanoma:
