Partial Video Transcript:
"So this video is going to talk about squamous cell cancers. Now squamous cell cancers are the second most common type of skin cancer there is. And squamous cell cancers are more dangerous than basal-cell cancers. So we really need to respect these because they have an increased chance of spreading internally, going to other organs, and wreaking havoc in your body.
Now squamous cell cancers tend to be less locally destructive. But again, they tend to go deeper and spread more easily, especially in certain locations like the ears, around the mouth, and around the nose. So, squamous cell cancers still come from increased exposure over a lifetime to ultraviolet light in other forms of radiation, so we do need to limit those. And if you've been diagnosed with one of these, it's really important that you look at your skin once a month in the mirror to determine if anything is new, changing, growing, or simply not healing..."

I had this on my nose and let me tell you it all happened so fast once I was diagnosed. Moms in a day or two then forehead flap. I don’t think it really hit me until I saw my forehead attached to my nose. My doctor done a great reconstruction job. All I can say your in for a ride 😊
Please tell me how to contact you I have so many questions and I have the same type and it was gone but now it's back and they are considering this type of surgery I am so scared lost and confused
Yes the educated patient is the best patient thanks
Excellent! Thank you!
Had this on my shin. Woke up one morning, and for some weird reason in the middle of the night I had taken my left heel and scraped it against my right shin until it bled. Turns out that cancer cells can irritate nerve endings and so for some reason in my sleep, I started scratching that area. everything healed up except there was a strange white bump in the middle of my shin that one doctor said was just a cyst. But when I went to the dermatologist, they said no it’s more than that because it was also dry and kind of flaky with kind of a slight reddish area around it . Anyway, I did the Mohs surgery. They only had to go down one layer to get all of it. And you end up with stitches. And then because it’s my leg, they want you to keep your leg elevated for a week as much as you can to keep the stitches in place before they dissolve.
Very informative video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma this morning but its on the back of my hand so I'm hoping it can be relatively easy to treat.
I also was just diagnosed with this on my shoulder. If it is "in situ" then they just do a ED&C. My procedure went well, but my sister died from melanoma, so I'm anxious about the whole situation. Hope you have a positive outcome.
I had a SCC removed from the back of my hand too. The lesion didn’t look like much though it had been hurting more and more. The size of the hole they made was much bigger than I expected.
Lost my sister to basline squamous cell cancer of the tongue. She was ignnored until it was to late. Blood work doesn't detect this squamous cell cancer. You need an ENT to scope you. If youe feel any pain or discomfort in you ears,nose,throat INSIST your ENT scope you.
I had 3 biopsies for white patches under my tongue, last one was squamous cell cancer, having hospital surgery in 2 days to make sure it was all removed. Luckily I caught it early. So sorry for your sister.
Been the last 5 years dealing with this. Have 2 major surgeries with loose of 8 teeth and 1/3 of my maxima and 30 radiation treatments. Reconstruction surgery and now have lost 2 more teeth due to radiation damage. I'm now cancer free and feel fortunate to be here. So if you even suspect that something is wrong go to a Replicable physician and get a 2nd opinion if you don't feel assured of the first diagnosis.
I'm choosing Radiation therapy. My Squamous cell is on my thumb and wrapped around a nerve. Has anyone chosen this procedure?
I have a squamous cell cancer on the lower eyelid and affecting the nerve(s). Have been told the hole is going to be too big to be stitched and will need skin graft. Why no mention of that particular procedure?
what if you have stage 4 of squamous cell carcinomas. Is that the end and and cannot be cured. What is the best procedure after you had already had the moh surgery? I know there are many different procedures.
At this stage if there are no surgical or radiation options, there are newer injectable therapies that can help. Please talk to your oncologist about this option.
Thank you for the information@@DoctorpediaYT
How did it start out n what did it look like?
Oops, the link to the quiz is broken.
What about a non malignant squamous.
I've just been diagnosed with this have appointment with dermatology next week. It's on my face left cheek and I'm really concerned.
How are you doing now?
@@marcusfortune2589 hi I'm good thanks my results were clear and my scar has healed very well fingers crossed I don't get any more. Many thanks for your enquiry 👍
My mom is suffering heavily from this cancer
I’m a mother of 4 and have been just told I have SCC. How are you coping. Do you have any advice for supporting my children through this?
I was just diagnosed with Squamus cell cancer after my biopsy it started to grow back. I go back in four days. Should I be waiting that long?
If it is growing that quickly then please call your doctor and let them know what is happening so that they can determine how soon you should go back in.
@@DoctorpediaYT I did so today. I kept reading that these cancers grow slowly mine seems to have a life of its own. Super bummed.
@@stephaniewilson5284 I have the exact same thing happened. And they want to do the small surgery on me what happened with yours
I wasn't diagnosed yet but I have this black growth on my foot it bleeds n it is open in the middle of it. It's scaly. I'm really scared I had it for about a month now. 😩
My mum is dying from this horrible cancer
I am so sorry.
Mine too 😪
@@16srekal I’m so sorry for u and ur mum 💙 it’s the hardest thing I’ve Eva had to go thru. Big hugs
Squamous cell isn't life threatening. I think you mean malonoma.
@@12NFLtitlessquamous cell can be life threatening.
Terrifying stuff. My 16 old dog has this.
I've been diagnosed with basal-sqaumous cell carcinoma in the center of my chest. My dermatologist wants to cut it out because it can potentially grow into my chest and lungs, but I'm just going to burn it off with my mental powers.
Have you get healthcare again.?
Hey dude, I done the same and then grew a third ear!
@@sandrider1406 I ended up having it surgically cut out. Can you hear better now, though??
@@Mechaneer Sorry, what did you say. Speak up 🤣🤣🤣👍
@@sandrider1406
You guys… 😂😂😂
Txs for the laugh! I needed that! Having a SCC in situ treated this coming Wednesday! It, too, is in the center of my chest and likely from chest radiation in 2005 for breast cancer. It’s less than 1 cm, but still creeps me out. Very nervous. Meeting with the surgeon in advance to discuss ED&C vs Mohs. I tend towards Mohs just to make sure all the abnormal cells are removed, but seems like that might be an overkill for a 9 mm in situ lesion. Just don’t know.
he does not metastasize
Just found out my dad has this. :(
Sorry to hear that.
so sorry lass i hope everything will be OK for your dad
Abbreviations and Scottish accents.... please do not expect your audience to know what you mean by "ED & C", this may mean different things at different parts of the world.
Husband dx with this in his throat. Typical mouth cancer.
