Experts have highlighted skin marks that could indicate a deadly condition, such as melanoma, a skin cancer. Following Teddi Mellencamp’s diagnosis with multiple brain tumors, it became clear that melanoma can spread to the brain, causing severe consequences. Mellencamp had stage two melanoma, diagnosed in 2022, and had brain tumors that grew over six months. Melanoma typically appears as irregularly shaped, brown or black moles with uneven color. Symptoms of brain metastases from melanoma include headaches, seizures, and vision issues. Melanoma increases the risk of other cancers like those in the breast, kidney, and thyroid. Treatment includes surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and targeted therapy, but surgery is only for patients with a limited number of brain metastases.
