Lumps and Bumps

Looking after your skin is as easy as ABCDE. Protecting your skin from UV damage with the use of sun screen and sun protective clothing are some of the best ways to maintain healthy skin.

If you have concerns for pre-existing or new skin lesions please contact the office. In most cases minor skin procedures can be managed in our office, however in light of the COVID-19 pandemic these procedures have been deferred.

ABCDE

Asymmetry: if you notice a skin lesion that appears to be asymmetrical, this may be a warning sign for a health care professional to make an assessment.

Border: if you notice a skin lesion that appears to have irregular borders, this may be a warning sign for a health care professional to make an assessment.

Colour: if you notice a skin lesion that has a variety of colours in its appearance, this may be a warning sign for a health care professional to make an assessment.

Diameter: if you notice a skin lesion that has a diameter larger than the pencil tip of an eraser, this may be a warning sign for a health care professional to make an assessment.
