Melanoma or fishing accident?
- WalterBright 6y agoFortunately not melanoma, but typical problems caused by sun damage.
- dwd 6y agoMelanomas are pretty drastic because they'll quickly spread cancer throughout your body, and require chemotherapy to prevent you from dying if not detected early enough. More common you can get carcinomas that doctors prefer to cut out. BCCs often look like a rough patch of skin that never heals while a SCC can be more wart-like and also spread locally if not dealt with. All are caused by sun damage.
