There are many different types of skin cancer. Melanoma is the third most common form of skin cancer, and can metastasize--spread to other organs. Tumors that are around or under the nail can be quite aggressive.

There are some newer treatments that are available that can extend survival rates. I recommend that you find an Oncologist who specializes in the type of cancer that he has.
