I have a bcc on the base of my nose This was confirmed by a punch biopsy 5 weeks ago. I have seen the plastic surgeon who plans to remove the bcc with 4mm margin and a skin graft ‘ in the very near future’. I have become worried recently as my nose feels cold all of the time and has a low ache- a bit like toothache. I had this ache on and off for months before the biopsy but it didn’t occur to me that it might be related to the bcc so didn’t mention it to anyone. Has anyone else had this sensation? Do I need to contact the surgeon?
im probably panicking over nothing but am not looking forward to what is coming and am struggling with the not knowing when it’s going to happen. I know that there are far worse things to have and am trying to be positive x
Hi Bobsmum and a very warm welcome to the skin cancer forum which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I've had a BCC removed but not from my nose and without the cold, aching feeling you're experiencing.
It might be an idea to contact your surgeon to explain the sensations you're feeling and to put your mind at rest.
Let us know how you get on.
