Can a pharmacist diagnose skin cancer?
I think I may have skin cancer. I saw 2 pharmacists tonight because the clinics are closed. One said it would be best to consult, one said it didn't look like skin cancer at all.
Do you think I should see a doctor tomorrow (I managed to find a clinic willing to see me) or not?
Answer:
Pharmacists are medically trained, they have to be to work with all the medicines.
it owuld really go towards their personel experiance rather then their medical background diagnosing something like that, you can find guides online if you search 'how to recognise skin cancer' or if it's a mole, you can find some apps if you have a smart phone that are quite accurate in telling you if you have something to worry about, but they cen be tricky to use if the mole isn't easily accesible.
diagnosing skin cancer, personally i wouldn't want to rely on a pharmacist, it's best to get it checked out by a doctor or skin specilist.
