    What's your diagnosis?

    I'll tell you in advance that it's not an infection.

    I'll post the correct answer in about three days!

    Correct answer:

    Basal cell carcinoma.

    A rather serious case, based on the number of lesions in this patient. The lesions are classically located on the face; the sun-exposed skin (mainly head and neck) are affected most often. The disease can present in many ways: it may look like a harmpless red pimple, or it's more dangerous looking when the lesion's excreting pus or blood.
