Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma may look only slightly different than normal skin. The cancer may appear as skin bump or growth that is:- Pearly or waxy

In some cases the skin may be just slightly raised or even flat. You may have:
- A skin sore that bleeds easily
- A sore that does not heal
- Oozing or crusting spots in a sore
- Appearance of a scar-like sore without having injured the area
- Irregular blood vessels in or around the spot
- A sore with a depressed (sunken) area in the middle
