Follow-up of patients with Skin Cancer
In the current 'COVID-19' climate, all follow-up appointments will be via telephone. If there is an urgent issue that you are concerned about, please contact the Skin Cancer CNS service and you will be advised on next steps.
For patients who have had a Squamous Cell Cancer (SCC) or Malignant Melanoma (MM) you may find the following video link on how to examine your lymph nodes helpful (this should be what was explained to you in the skin cancer specialist nurse clinics).
