WWE: Bret Hart opens up about his skin cancer on Instagram
Bret Hart posted a picture of himself on Instagram and captioned it, “Goal for 2020 and beyond: wear more sunscreen! Basal cell carcinoma removal scheduled soon. Another opportunity to remind everyone to look after your health and #getchecked.” Take a look at his Instagram post.
According to studies conducted by Skincancer.org, basal cell carcinoma (BCC) grows slowly. Thus, early detection and treatment can cure it. It is very rare when BCC becomes a life-threatening disease. However, Bret Hart wants everyone to stay alert about the disease. BCC appears like a tiny “pearly” bump. It may look like a flesh coloured mole or a pimple that may not go away. BCC generally happens on those skin tissues that receive too much sunlight or Ultraviolet rays (UV rays).
