What are the symptoms of skin cancer?

The most commonly noticed symptom of skin cancer is a change on the skin, especially a new growth or a sore that doesn't heal. Both basal and squamous cell cancers are found mainly on areas of the skin that are exposed to the sun--the head, face, neck, hands and arms. However, skin cancer can occur anywhere.

For melanoma, the first sign often is a change in the size, shape, color or feel of an existing mole. Melanomas can vary greatly in the way they look, but generally show one or more of the \"ABCD\" features:

* Their shape may be Asymmetrical.
* Their Borders may be ragged or otherwise irregular.
* Their Color may be uneven, with shades of black and brown.
* Their Diameter may change in size.
