BCC

I have BCC just behind my R ankle and waiting to have it removed and it will require a skin graft. I’m still on the waiting list. About 6 weeks ago it’s started to bleed and ache. Should I ring the hospital or just wait til my appointment comes through?

  • Hello and thank you for posting,

    I am sorry you have these concerns, if you remain worried about the pain or bleeding do let your GP know as it is difficult to say when your other appointment will come through.

    You can contact the hospital, but it may not make a difference to where you are on the waiting list. 

    Take care, and I hope this gets sorted for you soon. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm, Monday to Friday.

    Sarah.
