A member asked:

Hi,does yeast causes squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma as i have a red colour spot on the edge of my nose and would like to know what help this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nose rash: Yeast is not known to cause either of those skin cancers. See how that rash progresses and wait to have it looked at by a doctor when safe. If you ability to communicate with doctor by cell phone or computer, you could also send a good photo of it for her to see.
