I am taking a practice NCLEX exam and one of the question is who is at greatest risk for developing skin cancer. The options are
a superficial scar tissue
seborrheic keratoses
numerous facial freckles
flesh-colored papules
I went with numerous facial factors thinking of people with fair skin and their increased risk for skin cancer. But the answer is a superficial scare tissue...hu? I did not know scar tissue can cause cancer...??
