Bowen's Disease

Bowen's disease is a skin condition that causes red, scaly patches on the skin due to cancerous cell changes. It is an early form of squamous cell skin cancer and can appear on the skin, anus, or genital areas. Treatment options include surgical removal, radiotherapy, topical chemotherapy, and cryosurgery. Early detection and treatment are important for a high recovery rate. Prolonged sun exposure, HPV infections, arsenic exposure, and a compromised immune system can contribute to its development.
