How long does it take from discovery to death from skin cancer

The early manifestations of various skin cancers are mostly erythematous skin lesions accompanied by scaly desquamation or crust formation. It is not only difficult to distinguish their histological types by naked eye observation, but they are also easily confused with benign skin diseases such as psoriasis and eczema. Pathological examination is often required for a confirmed diagnosis.

Regardless of surgery, radiotherapy or other treatment methods, skin cancer has a good effect, and the cure rate can be over 90%. However, there is no clear answer to the question of how long a person with skin cancer can live. This is mainly related to the patient's specific condition and physical fitness. Early skin cancer can be cured with timely treatment. For mid- and late-stage skin cancer, although treatment is difficult, it is no problem to relieve symptoms, stabilize the condition, and reduce the patient's pain through effective treatment methods, thereby maximizing the patient's life.
Experts remind that no matter what kind of cancer it is, as long as you actively cooperate with the doctor, it can be treated. After all, cancer is not a terminal illness, and skin cancer does not mean the end of life. Seeing a doctor is no longer a troublesome and painful thing, but a positive choice for your future life.
