Answered by Examlex AI CopilotThe four types of skin cancer identified in the chapter are:
1. Basal cell carcinoma: This is the most common type of skin cancer, usually appearing as a small, shiny bump or a red, scaly patch. It is slow-growing and rarely spreads to other parts of the body.
2. Squamous cell carcinoma: This type of skin cancer often appears as a firm, red nodule or a flat lesion with a scaly, crusted surface. It can grow and spread more quickly than basal cell carcinoma.
3. Melanoma: Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer and can develop from an existing mole or appear as a new dark spot on the skin. It has the potential to spread to other parts of the body if not detected and treated early.
4. Merkel cell carcinoma: This is a rare and aggressive type of skin cancer that usually appears as a firm, painless nodule on the skin. It can spread quickly to other parts of the body and requires prompt treatment.
It is important to regularly check your skin for any changes or abnormalities and to seek medical attention if you notice any suspicious growths or spots. Early detection and treatment are key in managing and preventing the spread of skin cancer.
