Melanoma accounts for just two percent of skin cancer cases but claims up to 13,000 American lives each year. It can occur almost anywhere, even where you don't get much sun exposure. Look for irregular-looking spots, new spots or ones that change size, shape or color. Early detection is important for survival. If you notice any of these, please contact your primary physician or dermatologist to get professionally screened. Your doctor can diagnose and test suspicious moles or growths.
