Dermatologist warns of five key signs of skin cancer, stressing early detection and regular checks.

Dermatologist Dr. Emily Alfonsi warns of five signs of skin cancer: new moles or changes in existing moles, unhealed sores, red scaly patches, and skin lesions that itch, burn, or bleed. Early detection is crucial for treatment, with over 90% of cases curable if caught early. Regular skin checks, especially in often-missed areas like the scalp and behind ears, are recommended. UV light is a major cause of non-melanoma skin cancer.
