skin cancer on nose

I had a bcc the side of my nose removed by mohs in July of last year. I really only noticed it because it started to bleed slightly when I dried my face after washing. If it is a bcc it will depend where it is on your nose and how deep it is but it is a really common cancer, usually doesn't spread and normally isn't a problem once it's removed. Try not to worry. Unfortunately I had swelling post surgery which meant it didn't heal as quickly as it might have done but I don't even think about it now.

I understand your worry. I have a small area of dry skin on the side of my nose it's been there for over a year now in spite of the various heavy duty creams I've put on to try to get rid of it. I am now thinking I should go and see a doctor about this in case it's something serious. Of course getting to actually see a doctor ,if I tell receptionist I just have some dry skin on my nose, could be a problem. Hope your results setyour mind at rest.

oh thank you each and everyone and praying and hoping we are all well and able.

Try not to worry. Best to get it sorted on your nose sooner, rather than later. Hopefully nothing 🙏

I know. It's easy to say don't worry but one can't help worrying.

Absolutely. I had a biopsy on my ear on the middle bit, had visions they would have to remove the whole piece.
Results took ages to come back. It was just like a fatty, hard lump 😅
