Try not to worry about a basal cell. I was a lifeguard for eight summers in the late 60’s, early 70’s. My husband was too. The both of us have had many basal cells due to that sun exposure. They can be removed completely, usually using a procedure called “MOHS Surgery”. Just an office procedure where they remove it and look under the microscope to make sure that they got it all. They will put a few stitches in it and you return in three weeks for the stitches to be removed. (Sometimes, they put in stitches that just dissolve). Try not to worry. Mary Ann from MA
