When we think about skin checks and melanoma, most of us focus on our face, arms, and back - but did you know melanoma can appear on your feet and under your toenails too?
Because feet are often overlooked, melanomas here are more likely to go unnoticed until later stages. Early detection = better outcomes.
What to look for:
• Dark streaks under toenails
• New spots or moles between the toes
• Changes in existing freckles or marks
• Wounds that don’t heal
This summer, add your feet to your regular skin check routine. If you spot something unusual, don’t wait - get it checked.
Protect your skin, protect your future. Your feet carry you everywhere - let’s keep them safe this summer.
