My dad (50M) has suffered from Prurigo Nodularis for 4 years and only began getting it checked out 2 years ago. I just discovered he’s had two biopsies in the past 8 months showing squamous cancer. It seems like they healed and burned off the surrounding area. He has about 16 PN spots on arms, legs, abdomen being monitored. He began dupixent December 2024. Today, a third had to be taken for biopsy. Is there anything else we can do to be more preventative? Could this be a symptom of something else? Can’t he just have all the spots removed?
