I pointed out something to my primary care doctor for three years before he finally suggested I get it checked by a dermatologist. By then I had Melanoma that had spread to my lymph nodes. Just schedule an annual checkup with the dermatologist. It could save your life.

I recently went to my dermatologist for a full skin exam and showed her a small red patch on my hand. She took a sample to biopsy. I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, a form of skin cancer. I then went in for a procedure called Mohs surgery to remove the cancer. I was so thankful that I acted early. Always a good idea to check something out that doesn't look or feel right.
