Skin C*ncer vs. Harmless Spots, Early detection of skin cancer—especially melanoma—is crucial. Check your skin regularly for spots

may be a new or changing spot with uneven borders and multiple colors. Nodular Melanoma:
A rapid-growing form of melanoma that spreads quickly—requires urgent attention
