Hi,
I've posted a few months ago about having a bad sunburn, espcially on my face. I didn't get blisters but peeled 3 times! I don't normally get much sun exposure otherwise... it's usually pretty chilly in where I live. Anyway, since that one sunburn incident, I've began to find a few tiny "rough spots" on my face. Some seemed to have gone away except there is still this spot that feels pretty rough on my forehead, but you can't see it at all. I'm also more concerned about this other pinkish spot about the size of the tip of my pinky... it was lighter before but now it's a littler redder and gets itchy (only if I scratch it). Could this be cancer, or is it something like Nonmelanoma skin cancer and actinic keratosis - terms that I've come across on-line. Thanks for your help!
