What is squamous skin cancer?

Basically, it's a skin cancer that can grow if you've had too much sun without protection. The practical solution is to always use sunscreen, wear hats, and if you see any new or changing moles/spots, show it to a skin doctor. Don't ignore it.

I just got treatment for this a few months back! It's a type of skin cancer that can appear as a red, scaly patch or an open sore. My doctor removed it surgically, and I'm totally fine now. The key is to catch it early; don't wait.

My grandpa had a spot on his hand that turned out to be squamous skin cancer. It looked like a rough, red patch. They got it removed, and he's good. It's pretty common for older people, especially if they spent a lot of time outside.

It's one of the two most common types of skin cancer. Mostly caused by long-term exposure to sunlight. If you see any suspicious growth or lesion on your skin that doesn't heal, just go to the doctor, don't think too much.
