I had a melanoma on my hand, just below the 1st knuckle, the area for me that tends to get a lot of sun exposure while driving and golfing (I glove both hands now, when I can afford to play ;-)
A doc used cryosurgery to remove it over 10 yrs ago and it left an obvious circular scar, about an inch in diam. 9x out of 10, there is a scab on the upper part, right where the cancer was. I applied salve a couple yrs ago and got nothing. I used home made black salve (Balm of Gilead, Kathryn Brunken) on my Angel Labbie girl Jasmine's spindle cell tumor. It was triggered by a sprain to her dew claw and then shock to her immune system after bloat/torsion/corrective surgery. I have to say, it was both amazing and disgusting to watch the cancer come out. I had her loaded up with pain meds and she seemed to handle it ok - still bounced around a bit, never really licked at it, and her appetite was good. IMO, I didn't apply enough for the 1st of 2 applications, and didn't leave it on for a long enough amt of time. I was afraid I'd hurt her - she was 15 at the time and I wanted her to have a good QoL vs me proving anything. So the process was slower than what I'm told is normal. That cancer tho - nasty, ugly beast, squirming and oozing out! Pieces would sluff off, followed by long tentacles that never seemed to end! Freakin gross! So IMO, my point was proven anyway - salve is shtuff! We didn't complete the process b/c my girl had a stroke and passed in her sleep a few days later. This was about 5 months after the 1st application. (I applied it twice, a few days apart.) We were probably just getting past the middle of treatment, headed toward a positive end. A good resource that I found is Yahoo group: theblacksalveneoplasenecancerforum. The info there is helpful for humans and other animals, even tho neoplasene is essentially the canine equivalent for black salve. On a site note: if you go the neoplasene route for your animal, I've been told the doc who created it is an ass. So I went with black salve and spent $75 vs several hundred ++. From what I've read, he apparently has little regard for the comfort of the animal and is a major control freak. So most people I've 'met' who use the product take his advice, usually via phone, and back down the dosage and add pain meds and their own soothing creams and ointments. At any rate, black salve is great. I also used it on some kind of spider(?) bite on my ankle. My ankle was swollen to nearly twice the size prior to salve, and the pain was excruciating - zero weight bearing, touching my toe was just about unbearable. I applied salve on a little red dot and within a day, the gauze was covered in smelly pus and the pain was gone. 2 days and my ankle was normal again. Also check out artemisinin, taken internally and/or applied in a cream directly on the cancer (or suspicious growth). There is a Yahoo group for that too. The research scientists (Linh? Is one) in WA who have studied it for years are very helpful and will provide exact dosage and dietary info. There are certain foods to avoid and recommended supplements to add. I researched, or rather read up on as much info as I could find re alt cancer cures. Black salve and artemisinin were amongst the best IMO, and the least expensive I could find. This was in 2009. Also check out Essiac Tea and turmeric. I added these, along with the Budwig protocol for Jasmine. And I detoxed with DE. Best of luck, whichever treatment you use!

Dan < http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/skin-cancer/DS00190/DSECTION=treatments-and-drugs > Treatment for skin cancer and the precancerous skin lesions known as actinic keratoses varies, depending on the size, type, depth and location of the lesions. Small skin cancers limited to the surface of the skin may not require treatment beyond an initial skin biopsy that removes the entire growth. If additional treatment is needed, options may include: - *Freezing.* Your doctor may destroy actinic keratoses and some small, early skin cancers by freezing them with liquid nitrogen (cryosurgery). The dead tissue sloughs off when it thaws.
