Hi
describe a keratosis.
This is a skin lesion resulting in a red, scaly area
located in an area exposed to the sun (face, back of hands, scalp ...)
Keratosis are due to the intense and prolonged sun exposure.
These lesions may evolve over time into skin cancer
The keratosis is a precancerous condition that affects only the outer layers of the skin (epidermis)
