HealthCert Education
In this week's case discussion, submitted by Dr David Stewart, we look at a 71-year-old female patient who presents with a changing lesion on her right wrist.
Last year she attended a local laser clinic and had the lesion treated a couple of times, but she does not feel the lesion ever fully cleared. It is now growing and becoming raised.
