Skin Changes
A wart or mole that appears out of nowhere usually doesn’t cause us much concern, but the reality is that it should if they happen to change or grow. These kinds of skin changes are most commonly associated with skin cancer. Other indicators of skin cancer include any skin growth that has irregular edges or blood. If you happen to notice any of these skin changes, make sure to consult your doctor just in case. Mole removal is usually an easy and painless procedure and can ensure that it does not develop into cancer. Other skin changes to look out for include: dark spots (also known as hyperpigmentation) jaundice or yellowing of the eyes and skin, and white spots in the mouth (which is indicative of oral cancer).
