Where does melanoma usually grow?

1. Melanoma usually grows on the limbs, trunk, and head.

2. Melanoma is a tumor caused by malignant changes in melanocytes. It is relatively malignant and is prone to occur between the ages of 50 and 55. The earlier the disease is discovered, the greater the possibility of cure. Causes include sunburn and ultraviolet radiation, or a decrease in skin melanin, which can cause symptoms such as skin itching, pain, and ulcers. As the disease progresses, it may cause local capillaries to rupture and cause bleeding. The disease occurs in the limbs and trunk, and in a few patients, it may occur on the top of the head.

3. Melanoma patients need to go to the hospital for pathological examination, and then undergo surgical resection for treatment according to the examination results. If the test results are benign, it means there is no lesion, and generally no special treatment is required after surgery; if the test results are malignant, it means that the melanoma has lesions, and after surgery, you need to follow the doctor's advice and undergo chemotherapy. The drugs used include cisplatin injection, carboplatin injection, vincristine sulfate injection, etc., which can control the growth of tumors and prevent the spread and metastasis of cancer cells.

4. During the treatment, patients should pay attention to their eating habits and avoid eating foods such as fried dough sticks and chili peppers. They should also maintain a comfortable mood to avoid affecting the recovery of the disease.
