Early symptoms of skin cancer

Skin cancer is a malignant tumor of the skin. In the early stage, it may mainly manifest as a lump or an ulcer lesion, or a black tumor. Skin cancer is mainly divided into basal cell carcinoma of the skin. It is mainly an ulcer lesion that repeatedly does not heal, and then it is sunken like a crater. The base is relatively shallow. This treatment effect is very good, and it can be expanded and cured through surgery. There is also squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, which manifests as a local cauliflower-like tumor or ulcer that repeatedly does not heal, and a lump forms on the surface. There may be lymph node metastasis, which can be controlled by radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgery. There is also skin melanoma, which manifests as a black tumor on the skin. This type of malignancy is the most serious and the treatment effect is not good.

Skin cancer treatment

Skin cancer is a cancerous change in the tissue on the surface of the skin, a rapidly growing mass on the surface of the skin in a short period of time, or a skin ulcer that does not heal for a long time. For the latter, biopsy is mainly used for pathological diagnosis. For the treatment of skin cancer, extended surgical resection is mainly used. If there is enlarged lymph nodes in the corresponding area, lymph node dissection is required. After surgery, it is necessary to combine the type and stage of skin cancer to decide whether chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy are needed.

Can skin cancer be cured?

Skin cancer is a type of malignant tumor that occurs on the skin. Generally speaking, skin cancer can be cured. Compared with other internal organs, cancer may not be too serious, and surgery can achieve a radical cure. For example, a common type of cancer in the skin is basal cell carcinoma of the skin. Generally, the lesions are relatively shallow, and surgery can be used to expand radical resection. The general treatment effect is very good. There is also squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, which may have regional lymph node metastasis. In addition to surgery, lymph node dissection is also required, and the treatment effect may be relatively good. There is also a type of malignant melanoma of the skin. Only very early cases can be cured, and most of them may not be completely cured.
