Skin Cancer:
Skin cancer is a condition where malignant cells develop in the layers of the skin. There are different types of skin cancer, including actinic keratosis, basal cell carcinoma, Bowen's disease, and squamous cell carcinoma.
These forms of skin cancer vary in their causes, symptoms, and treatment options.
In the following, we will elaborate on each of these types of skin cancer as well as discuss surgical measures and frequently asked questions on each topic.
Actinic Keratosis: Actinic keratoses are small, rough patches on the skin caused by sun exposure. They can develop into skin cancer if left untreated.
Basal Cell Carcinoma: Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer. It often appears as a shiny bump or a sore that does not heal.
Bowen's Disease: Bowen's disease is a type of skin cancer that presents as a red, scaly patch.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Squamous cell carcinoma is another type of skin cancer that develops in the upper layers of the skin. It often appears as a hard, growth-like spot. Treatment typically involves surgical removal or a specialized procedure called Mohs surgery.
Melanoma: Melanoma is the most dangerous form of skin cancer. It may appear as a dark, irregularly shaped spot on the skin. Early detection is crucial.
