Skin Cancer
Cancers that arise from the skin are called skin cancers. The development of abnormal cells that attain the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body causes them. The three major types of skin cancers namely basal cell skin cancer (BCC), squamous cell skin cancer (SCC), and melanoma. Basal cell cancer usually grows slowly and damages the tissue around it, but it usually, does not spread to distant areas or result in death. It often appears as an ulcer or an unusual bump on the skin. On the other hand, squamous-cell cancer is more likely to spread. It usually presents as a hard lump with a scaly top but may also form an ulcer. Melanomas are the most aggressive. Signs include a mole that has changed in size, shape, and color, has irregular edges, has more than one color, and is itchy or bleeds.
