Dermatologist warns TikTok of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), a common form of skin cancer linked to sun exposure.
Dermatologist Dr. Mark Strom warns via TikTok that not all spots or "pimples" are harmless, some may be basal cell carcinoma (BCC), the most common form of skin cancer related to sun exposure. BCC spots do not heal and can grow, appearing as non-healing pink or purple bumps with pigment. If left untreated, they can invade bone. Prevention involves avoiding sun exposure and wearing sunscreen.
