Symptoms Observed in Melanoma
Melanoma is typically identified by a dark brownish patch with dark speckles. The formation of unusual moles, lumps, and defects is possible. The formation of a new lesion on the skin that changes in size, shape, and color is a common indicator of melanoma. The mark appears distinct from other spots.
It may be level, slightly elevated, or discolored. It may possess an asymmetrical region with irregular borders. Tan, brown, black, and red comprise the hues of melanoma.
Redness or new edema that causes itching and pain may develop. The surface of the mole changes, exhibiting scaliness, oozing, and hemorrhaging with a lump-like appearance.
In melanoma skin cancer, the mole becomes malignant, causing alterations in its color, size, and texture. In addition to bleeding, the mole forms small lesions with irregular borders and portions. There are red, pink, and white portions. Lesions may cause irritation and/or a burning sensation. On the palms, soles, and mucous membrane lining of various body parts such as the mouth, nostrils, and anus, dark lesions develop.
