Symptoms Of Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Firm Red Nodule

Finding a firm, red nodule on the skin is the most common warning sign of skin cancer. As the harmful cells change and multiply, they can cause growths on the skin. This is particularly evident with growths and sores that do not heal or go away on their own, as sometimes unexpected but non-dangerous things can pop up on the skin. Firm red lumps can take many sizes and shapes, though they typically start off small and shiny. Over time, this lump grows and can even begin to bleed. You may develop a single lump or many, in a specific area or scattered around the body. These need to be inspected by a doctor immediately to catch the condition as early as possible.
