Skin cancer on lip

Well today after paying private twice to see dermatologist first time diagnosed as a wart and froze off today I saw another dermatologist who says it looks very much like scc to me biopsy taken today it's been 12 months since the so called wart was frozen off with no biopsy feeling very scared and not sure who to trust anymore 

  • Welcome to the forum Water although I'm sorry to hear about the conflicting information you've received from the dermatologists.

    I know this must be worrying but the good thing is that it's now been removed and hopefully the biopsy results will show it isn't scc.

    I'm sure some of our members who have been in a similar situation will offer their thoughts and advice to you soon but in the meantime, we're thinking of you Water and sending all our support your way.

    Kind regards,

    Thank you for your reply the dermatologist I saw private is rated as one of the top in the country so hopefully he's the one that's right and not too concerned and the young lad who kept looking at his phone is mistaken
