There are three main types of skin cancer.

Melanoma is a very dangerous type of cancer and thousands die each year from this worldwide.

Melanoma, untreated for too long can be fatal, so it is in your interest to seek medical help as soon as you can.

It may appear as a new spot on your skin, or as an existing defect that changes appearance, a mole or freckle that changes shape or color. Regularly check your skin for any changes, do not spend too much time in the sun, wear special blockout cream to prevent burning, if you live in a region that gets a lot of sun, you should have an inspection of the skin annually by a doctor.

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer, it can be flaky scaly skin, or may be red or pale, or bump, usually on the arms, hands, or face, even if it gender is the least serious, it is important to have them treated.

Squamous cell carcinoma, these are quite serious because they can also spread to other parts of the body, such as melanoma, they generally must be excised, which is not very nice, very often they are on the face, ears, hands, arms, anywhere that was exposed to the sun, once again, it is imperative that medical help is sought as soon as you can.

There are dozens of different types of other cancers, but there are two main groups. Sarcomas that come from connective tissue, bone, muscle, cartilage, etc., and
Carcinomas that originate from epithelial cells, which are the linings of your body, internal or external.
