A member asked:
I had surgery for cystic basal cell carcinoma and now have a lump above incision, is that normal?

It might be: If the surgery was recent, there could be lumps in the scar tissue. With any skin cancer, you need to worry about recurrence. You should have this evaluated by your surgeon.
