Question: Skin cancer question!?!?!?!?
Is all skin cancer a dark shade!? I have a new spot on my leg!. It's just alittle darker than my natural color (but not much!.)It's not raised or anything!. I have an appointment in June!. But if anyone has any skin cancer experience and can help me relax a bit I would greatly appreciate it!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I'd guess you have developed a small solar keratosis!. These are skin spots that develop due to sun exposure and as you age!. If that is what it is, if you are under age 30 and not a tanner, then this is probably nothing to be worried about!. If you are older then this type spot can develop into a precancerous skin lesion called an actinic keratosis!. If the spot is cosmetically bothering you then laser treatment will remove the it or you can have it frozen off!. Don't bother looking up images of solar keratosis because the examples on the web are not superficial examples but are examples to be found on older people with extensive UVA exposure and are not typical for the type skin spot that you have described!.
