5 very early signs one should not miss
One of the earliest signs that might indicate towards skin cancer is change in a mole’s shape, size, colour or texture over time. A general rule of thumb to detect this early on is by using the ABCDE rule. As per the ABCDE rule, one should look out for the following changes in their moles:
Asymmetry – one side doesn’t match the other
Border – edges are irregular or blurred
Colour – multiple shades present
Diameter – typically larger than 6 mm
Evolving – changes over time, including bleeding or itching
Any such changes may indicate melanoma, which is one of the most serious forms of skin cancer. If you notice any such changes in your moles, then do consult your doctor or skin specialist at the earliest. Remember, early detection is key to smooth and faster recovery.
