Anyone else had skin cancer removed from scalp. I had mine removed a week ago and had a rough week after more pain than I expected from head wound and despite pain killers, very little sleep.
Had stitches in head removed yesterday but cant touch wound on thigh for another week. I have anothet health condition which has become worse due to above. I have district nurses coming in for next weeks to deal with wounds.
Any advice gratefully received.
Hi Montyc4135f
I’m sorry to read that you've had a rough week since having a BCC removed from your scalp. I haven't had one removed from that area but I can imagine it would be very sore.
I've had a look for previous posts which mention having surgery on the scalp and found these for you to have as look through. You could reply to any of them if you feel they might be able to answer any questions you might have.
When you have a minute, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
