Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): Know The Signs 🔎
BCC is the most common skin cancer in the UK, accounting for around 7️⃣0️⃣% of all skin cancer cases, and it’s estimated that approximately 100,000 people are diagnosed with BCC annually.
Top 4️⃣ warning signs include:
1️⃣ An open sore that does not heal, and may bleed, ooze or crust. The sore might persist for weeks, or appear to heal and then come back.
2️⃣ A shiny bump or nodule that is pearly or clear, pink, red or white.
3️⃣ A small pink growth with a slightly raised, rolled edge and a crusted indentation in the center that may develop tiny surface blood vessels over time.
4️⃣ A scar-like area that is flat white, yellow or waxy in colour. The skin appears shiny and taut, often with poorly defined borders.
