How can you tell whether some skin abnormalities are cancerous or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How they look: It depends on size, the margin, the color and pattern. If you have a lot of sun exposure and have a fair complexion, you are at risk. Have your primary care provider or a dermatologist look at them.
