Scary Black Lesion On Nose Posted: 06-05-07 23:40pm
Check the blackish lesion on my nose. It
started as a red rash with small liquid
filled bumps 4 days ago. It has been black
and infected for three days. Is there any
chance that a cancerous lesion could form
out of the blue in three days? Will go to
the doctor tomorrow. It is the color of
this thing that scares me. Looks just like
pictures of sarcoma that I have seen
online.

Definatly Go! Posted: 06-19-07 07:58am
You definatly need to see a Dr., better
safe than sorry. My husband of 25 years
passed away of skin cancer, nodular
malignant melanoma, and believe me, I
wished he would have seen the Dr. sooner.
He has his lesion for years before I
finally won and he went to the Dr., but by
then, it was already melanoma. Yours
could very well be early stage melanoma,
so please see your dr. I have 6 children,
five of which are blonde and fair skinned
like my husband. I am diligent about
checking their skin, and between them,
they've had 4 positive biopsies and mole
removals. Don't wait, no excuses!! Good
luck...remember the earlier it's caught,
the better the chance for successful
treatment!!!
