flag An Australian man’s persistent lip crack, dismissed as dryness, was diagnosed as sun-damaged skin cancer after a biopsy.

flag A persistent lip crack that wouldn’t heal led an Australian man to a squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) diagnosis after months of being told it was dryness. flag Despite repeated dismissals, he pushed for a biopsy, revealing cancer linked to sun damage—commonly called "Farmer’s Lip"—which can spread rapidly due to the lip’s proximity to lymphatic pathways. flag The case highlights the need to seek medical evaluation for non-healing lip sores, especially as summer begins, to catch SCC early, with over 5,500 new cases in Australia annually.
