Is this a symptom of skin cancer? |
I have this rash like thing on my arm and it doesn't itch or anything, but the patch of skin is always dry (even when moisturized) there and it's lighter than my skin tone. Even when if I get tanned in the sun, that "rash" still stays the same color while the rest of my skin gets tanner. Don't worry, it's probably just a case of tinea versicolor. It's pretty common, you can check out this website: http://www.medicinenet.com/tinea_versico... That doesn't sound like skin cancer. I would guess these are round? Cancer is not round... they are usually irregular in shape, jagged edges and the color changes usually to a dark pigment. If you are really nervous, see a dermatologist they should be able to ease your mind. when u tan alot u can get darker and ur skin can burn. the same thing is near my cheek wen i didnt put on sunblock. if it is that bad, u should see a doctor immediatly. sometimes the sun rays hit sensitive parts on ur body. consider this a warning and b sure 2 put sunblock everyday. sun or no sun. first of all, if your worried you have skin cancer, why the **** are you trying to tan it? thats probably what gave you skin cancer, and yeah it might be, but the only skin cancer symptoms ive seen are little black dots people get on their skin it may be eczema . . . but you should go to a dermatologist . . . and if it is eczema, then you can get a creme from the doc to make it go away. I have something like that too. My doctor said it was a sort of mole that isn't what you commonly think of as being a mole. Best advice is to go to a dermatologist to have it checked out by a pro!!! Probably not, but it should be looked at the next time you have occasion to see a doctor. ooh nooo i have that its called numular exima you go to the dermatologist and they give you this thing called lipo creme yeah girl you might wanna go see a skin specialist u might have eczema |
