Possible Bcc on nose - should I get other spots/lumps checked that have started to appear around it?

I had a gp appointment last week as I've had a lump on side of nose for a while. I had bcc removed from my back about 10 years ago so I always get checked lumps. Doctor said looks like bcc. I'm now getting other spots/lumps around it, should I get them checked or is it just normal? 

  • Hello Na-41

    I'm sorry to hear that your doctor believes you have a BCC. It's good to hear that you always get lumps checked after a BCC 10 years ago. 

    It sounds like you're feeling a little concerned about these new spots/lumps so it would be sensible to get in touch with your GP to let them know you've got these new areas of concern. It may be that they want to see you to check these and they can then decide on the best next course of action. 

    Hopefully they will be able to give you some reassurance. Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
