Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that can spread to other body organs in the body. The most common sign of melanoma is the appearance of a new mole or a change in an existing mole. The mole may additionally be larger than normal and can sometimes be scratchy or bleed. You may also have a test to inspect if melanoma has spread to the lymph glands. Melanoma is brought on by skin cells that start to develop unusually. The type of sun exposure that causes melanoma is unexpected intense exposure, for instance, while on vacation, which leads to sunburn. Melanoma might develop from an existing mole or other normal skin growth that comes to be cancerous; however, many melanomas are new developments. It can spread out to other parts of the body if a melanoma ends up being thicker and includes numerous layers of skin. Melanoma is additionally a common feature of hereditary syndromes influencing the skin such as xeroderma pigmentosum. In addition, people that have formerly had melanoma are nearly 9 times most likely than the basic population to develop melanoma again. It is approximated that about 90 percent of individuals with melanoma survive at least 5 years after being identified. Cancer malignancies have uneven form and more than 1 colour. An 'ABCDE checklist' has been developed for people to tell the difference in between a normal mole and a melanoma. Lentigo maligna melanoma is most common in elderly people and those who have invested a lot of time outdoors.
