Does skin cancer cause itchy skin?

Skin cancer is a malignant tumor and is not easy to cure. Therefore, in order to better reduce and prevent these diseases, we should pay attention to scientific knowledge. Generally speaking, itchy skin does not mean it is a skin cancer problem, and we should pay attention to a comprehensive examination.

1. Is itchy skin a sign of skin cancer? We all know that skin cancer is a malignant tumor that is difficult to cure. Therefore, doctors specializing in skin cancer in modern hospitals have made the following explanation on whether or not you will feel itchy if you have this disease. It is not clear why skin cancer occurs, but it is generally believed to be caused by exposure to radiation, sunlight, long-term stimulation from chemicals, and various chronic skin diseases.

2. Basal cell carcinoma often occurs in the atrophic skin of the elderly. It is believed that the skin is the barrier of the human body and is easily invaded by external pathogens. Its diseases are not only related to the six external pathogens, but also connected with organ dysfunction. The lungs control qi and are connected to the skin and fur. If the lung qi is out of balance, the skin and fur will become dull. The liver stores blood and regulates blood volume. If the liver yin and blood are insufficient, the skin will be dry and blood will not be nourished. The spleen is the foundation of acquired constitution and the source of Qi and blood production. If the spleen is not functioning properly, Qi and blood production will be lacking, the skin will not be nourished, and if the spleen is not functioning properly, it will easily accumulate and become dampness, which can cause trouble together with external evils. It can be seen that skin cancer is most closely related to the lungs, liver, and spleen.

3. The six external evils, wind poison, dryness and heat, linger for a long time, consume the yin and blood, rob the essence and burn the fluids, or the dampness and poison stay for a long time, all of which may turn into malignant ulcers and cause this disease. The doctor pointed out: Skin cancer in general mainly causes pain, and yellow nodules often appear at the onset of the disease. Frequent exposure to ultraviolet light may cause itching. In the late stages of skin cancer, some special clinical symptoms often appear.
