Dont worry the doctor will take care of it and either way your dad will be fine.Health Question & Answer
Melanoma is the deadly skin cancer, mostly because people ignore it for too long and it metastasizes (transfers) to another, essential organ of the body. Here are what the doctor will look for when diagnosing the risk factor in your dad. First, is the bump perfectly round.? If yes, then it is ok. If not, he will ask another question. Is the bump a single color.? If yes, again, that is a good sign. If not, another question will be brought up. Is there a defined border.? Yes is good, no is not. If it seems to fade into the skin, it has a higher chance of being cancer. The more "no"s answered to the questions means a higher risk of the bump being a skin cancer. But, before you get worried, MANY skin cancers are non-harmful, 90% are successfully removed with no further effects to the patient.Health Question & Answer
Either it's a tumor, a lump, or something else. I don't think he'd die anytime soon. I'm not a doctor =/

It's possible...
Does he go in the sun a lot.? That's a big cause of skin cancer...
Is it pink/ red- ish, light brown- ish.? Black- ish.? That could be a malignant, melinoma... Of course, it's easier to tell with my dad (I made a self diagnosis on him, seeing as I read the medical stuff like a bible) because I have pictures in a book to refer to. Have you thought of getting a book at the library and comparing pictures.?
What ever it is, I wish the best of luck to your family. Cancer is a touchy subject in my house. I hope it doesn't become one for yours.
Good luck! Health Question & Answer

take a deep breath and then see if you can go to the doctor with your dad( he may need someone to hold his hand) the doctor can explain what is wrong and what to do about it. my mom had skin cancer removed from her face 15 years ago and she is still fine.Health Question & Answer
It could be skin caner, it could be cancer, or a tumor. You never know. It may just be a plugged pore. You never know. Just wait until the doctor gets the results back. I hope your father will be fine.Health Question & Answer
