Skin Cancer
Skin cancer is an abnormal growth of skin cells, generally associated with cumulative exposure to solar radiation or tanning beds. There are different types, with different behaviors and degrees of aggressiveness.
Signs to watch for: New moles or ones that change in size, shape, or color; spots that do not heal; irregular borders or bleeding in a skin lesion.
Why detection matters: Observing the skin and addressing changes early makes evaluation easier.
Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist is the one who examines skin lesions, and the oncologist takes part in the follow-up when necessary. Reviewing your skin regularly and discussing any suspicious change with a dermatologist is a sensible way to take care of yourself.
