What Are The Symptoms Of Skin Cancer?
Question: I want to know what skin cancer on the face looks like?
Brief Answer:
May be a spot or ulcer
Detailed Answer:
Hi
thanks for your query.
Skin cancers may look like-
A spot or sore that does not heal within 4 weeks
A spot or sore that itches, hurts, is scabbed or crusty, or bleeds for more than 4 weeks
Areas where the skin has broken down (an ulcer) and doesn't heal within 4 weeks, and you can't think of a reason for this change
An ulcer is an area that is breaking down and begins to get deeper.
Hope this helps. I will be available for follow-up.
Regards
