It can also develop from an area of ​​skin without a mole as a growing spot that later transforms into a tumor. The incidence of melanoma around the world has grown alarmingly. It is estimated that up to 1 in every 50-70 Spaniards will develop melanoma throughout their lives in 2010. Melanoma is a cancer that usually does not usually hurt or have warning symptoms until it has developed and spread to the lymph nodes or other organs through the blood circulation. Usually the patient does not think that it can be so dangerous or is not able to detect its appearance in the early stages. When a melanoma has become a palpable skin tumor or has a bleeding episode, it may be too late. For this reason, early diagnosis and correct removal when it is located on the skin is essential.
