A member asked:
Do i have a certain type of cancer if blackish areas on bottom?

When: Asking a question that involves inspecting an area directly, you cannot get accurate information. One needs to see where you note discoloration, size, shape, involvement. When you say "black", melanoma is a consideration, so you need an exam!
