What Is Superficial Basal Cell Carcinoma?

Answer 1

I’m 64 and just been diagnosed with a basal cell carcinoma. It has been on my leg at least 4 years and has about doubled in size this last year. Should have had it checked earlier. Should I be really worried? They are going to try to cut it out next week.

yes. basal cell carcinoma mostly happened at elderly. any chronic ulcer in skin should be checked. Normally,If there is no transfer to other tissue or lymph node, the prognosis is promising. Don' worry trust the doctor

Answer 3

Had a lump on my neck for like 5 years and it sometimes skabs over and drans and has hole in the sinter of it and has little red line in it

Hi, you need to have a biopsy in the hospital. Do you have other systematic symptoms besides the lump? In my opinion, it might be tuberculosis infections of lymph nodes or the lymphoma. You need to go to see a doctor ASAP.
