i really like your topic and i need more information about skin cancer...hopefully you can send me a pamphlet about it....you can email me at prolaine_z@yahoo.com....
I will be hoping for your reply....thankss
Dr. Berman, thank you for the information. It's been one month since I had a dime-sized precancerous growth on my face removed with liquid nitro - I go back next week for a check up. It seems to have healed from what I can tell. But I am still concerned... if there are cells below the surface that were not killed and then turn cancerous, will I be able to tell from a change in the surface or is it possible that cancer is blooming and spreading below the surface and/or into my blood stream without any way to be aware of it? I didn't get a satisfactory response from my dermatologist the first time I asked.. she just said that unless it was surgically removed, there was no way to be 100% sure.
Thanks so much Dr. Berman for your post. This is an important topic and your review of how to proceed will be helpful to others, I'm sure.
