Do I have cancer?!


Question: I have a mark on my left breast that used to be a freckle I think. It's no longer circular and is dark brown, light brown, and purple. Should I be scared?

that sounds like it could be a form of skin cancer. I would get it checked out by a doctor.

The ABCDEF method may help detect melanoma:

A (most early melanomas are asymmetrical);
B (borders of melanomas are uneven);
C (color; varied shades of brown, tan, or black are often the first sign of melanoma);
D (diameter; early melanomas tend to grow larger than common moles, greater than 6 mm in diameter),
E (elevation or enlargement, areas of melanoma may be elevated above the level of the adjacent skin and appear as small nodules, itch, ulcerate, or bleed).,
F (funny looking skin lesion which is enlarging or changing shades of color).

All the best

get it biopsied, if it is cancer and you catch it early the cure rate is really good. Dont delay, if its nothing than you can celibrate that and if there is you can start treating it right away

you can't realize that by asking on Y!A.
go see a doctor

#1.....don't look at pictures on the Internet....it will do nothing but scare you...

You are not dying!!......take a deep breath and make some calls tomorrow....

take the necessary steps to make sure its nothing!...

Don't let fear or procrastination really do you harm.....
