Skin Graft On Left Nostril. Grafted From Front Of Ear. Symptom Of Cancerous Cells Not Completely Removed?
The skin graft on left nostril of nose has not completely healed; it still shows after the surgery as a small adhesion; there was not a pathological confirmation after first removal of cancerous tissue, but was immediately grafted with skin from front of ear. Is this a symptom that cancerous cells were not completely removed?

Hi, Skin graft on left nostril has not completely healed, still showing as an adhesion.
As you think it might not be the cause, there are so many factors responsible for fusion of the graft, like circulation, apposition, etc.
i advise you to consult your doctor for examination. If everything is normal, a small manipulation will solve the problem. Thank you.
