5 days ago I had a BCC removed form my nose and a skin graft applied. There was quite extensive bleeding during the op. but for the first two days no noticeable bleeding. However 2 days later I woke with a large area of clotted blood beside the dressing on my nose, indicating there had been bleeding during the night. Does this mean that the graft is not going to be able to take as presumably there will also be blood under the buffer dressing the surgeon put on. I am quite worried about the possibility of having to go through all this again if this doesnt take, as the injections for the anaesthetic were horribly painful.

It seems like there are some new ways of treating skin cancer (non surgical & natural). ..
I found this informative slide show on skin cancer treatment. Takes about a minute to watch..
