Detailed explanation-1: -Skin cancer-the abnormal growth of skin cells-most often develops on skin exposed to the sun. But this common form of cancer can also occur on areas of your skin not ordinarily exposed to sunlight. There are three major types of skin cancer-basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma.
Detailed explanation-2: -Basal and squamous cell skin cancers are the most common types of skin cancer. They start in the top layer of skin (the epidermis), and are often related to sun exposure. Cancer starts when cells in the body begin to grow out of control.
Detailed explanation-3: -Melanoma typically begins as a mole and can occur anywhere on the body. Squamous cell carcinoma may appear as a firm red bump, a scaly patch, or open sore, or a wart that may crust or bleed easily. Basal cell carcinoma may appear as a small white or flesh-colored bump that grows slowly and may bleed.
