Melanoma Cancer Month | Peshawar General Hospital

This May, as we observe Melanoma Awareness Month, Dr. Sofia Khan, Consultant Dermatologist at Peshawar General Hospital, highlights the importance of recognizing melanoma early. Melanoma is a serious skin cancer that often appears as a new spot or changes in an existing mole, typically black or brown. Fair-skinned individuals are more prone due to higher sun exposure, but it can affect anyone. Key symptoms include changes in size, shape, or color of moles, irregular edges, and moles that itch, bleed, or become tender. If you notice any of these signs, seek medical advice immediately. Early detection is crucial for effective treatment.
