Re: Squamous Cell Carcinoma Stage 4
Part wart. Part truffle. Was it finally discovered by a specially trained hog? |

Re: Squamous Cell Carcinoma Stage 4
Ugh, at least I know that can't happen to me. My ocd would force me to remove it myself way before that stage. Sure it might have come right back, but that just gives me something else to do- feeding the endless cycle.

Re: Squamous Cell Carcinoma Stage 4
I have that skin picking disorder. Any little scab or piece of skin that isn't smooth will be removed. Even if it makes it worse in the end.  |

Re: Squamous Cell Carcinoma Stage 4
Dermatillomania - I have it too. But I don't touch any scabs. Just skin. And its so true, it always makes it worse!

Re: Squamous Cell Carcinoma Stage 4
This can just be excised and it's done, they don't give chemo or anything for squamous cell. Maybe some radiation but I don't think they even do that. I report on malignant cancers and we don't even pick these cases up. Looks pretty gross, though.

Doesn't that belong on the medical page?
