I found 3 spots on my husband’s back that changed over time and ended up being precancerous. Now we do a check once a month and take pics. He spent a lot of time at the lake as a kid.
I have had skin cancer on top of my head. I have a cowlick and managed to get too much sun in the center of it over the years. FYI, any head injury will bleed like crazy. I ended up with blood red hair, literally, which wasn’t too far from my natural hair. Since I didn’t want to wash an open wound after surgery, I left dried blood in my hair and went to dinner. I got many compliments on my hair color from strangers. I am currently awaiting results on a biopsy for skin cancer #7, this time on the back of my calf. I had it twice in the same place on my arm, and each time it took 3 years to get a dr to biopsy it. None of them were found by doctors. Get a hand mirror and learn how to check your entire body yourself and do it regularly. The rest? Face, shoulder. back. So far, all have been basal cell carcinoma which is considered the best cancer to get, if you have to get one. Or seven.

Maybe time to see a dermatologist. Dr. Pimple Popper is very good.
