Melanoma, while perhaps the least common form of skin cancer, is by far the deadliest due to its tendency to spread quickly to other organs and lymph nodes.
Melanoma typically looks like a mole or can evolve from an already existing mole. And there are 5 distinct elements to look for in a potentially cancerous mole. Think of them as the ABCDE’s of how to detect melanoma:
A – asymmetrical
B – boarder irregularities
C – coloured differently
D – diameter >6mm
E – evolving rapidly
Keep those in mind and catch 黑色素瘤 before it is too late.
