Q: I Am Really Scared And Need Advice.

Before I begin may I say I am not yet a trained nurse, just in case anyone thinks I should know a little more than I do.

I am really concerned, I have a few health problems however, the one most worrying me is that I have a small mole on my face which appears to be changing.

A few days ago I noticed it had risen alot higher than normal, it felt like there was a spot underneath so stupidly I attempted to squeeze it, to no avail.

It has now changed colour (turned lighter) and has gone crusty. I also have a mole on my arm which I have never really payed attention to however a few weeks ago I noticed it was red/pinky.

I have lived out in the sun for about 11 years of my life and have lived 12 up here in scotland.

I really need some advice. Please help

Don't Worry

Hi sarah, those seems like skin cancer symptoms. Its best you see you doctor and get it checked. My stepdad has been diagnosed 3 months ago with scc and a friend has told to try "curaderm cream".

Guess what. His scc has completelty gone and he's out there enjoying himself again.

all the best.

I have been looking for treatments for scc and bcc, options other than surgery. And I also came across curaderm cream. From everything I have herd and read...It is the real thing, and just what I have been looking for.
