[Personal] Would you tell a stranger if you had a strong suspicion they had skin cancer that they weren’t aware of?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I recognize this is controversial, but I’m curious about others’ opinions on this.About 2-3 weeks ago I was standing in a very crowded line at Starbucks. We were packed in and I was particularly close to the man in front of me. He was a young white man (maybe late 20s, early 30s) with a tan, Fitzpatrick 3 skin (worth noting he wasn’t freckled). After a few minutes, I couldn’t help but notice he had a few moles on the back of his left ear. But one wasn’t normal.. It was asymmetrical, had an irregular border (kind of like an amoeba?), and had a color that wasn’t uniform (both brown and black). Cue my immediate suspicion of skin cancer. He clearly didn’t seem to use sunscreen (effectively, at least, considering his hard tan lines) and most people forget to apply to their ears anyway. Of course this is a susceptible area considering it’s at a peak on our bodies, and he probably doesn’t see he backs of his ears all that often..My mind started spinning with questions and I had to wonder if he knew. And then I started to wonder if I should tell him..Now, here’s he thing. I would never. NEV. ER. comment unsolicited on the condition of someone else’s skin. I’ve been on the receiving end and know how hard it can hit. But in that moment I really questioned if it was a good idea to bypass that social guideline and say something for the sake of his health.Ultimately, I did not. And honestly, weeks later, I still think about him. I regret not saying something, but I’m still torn if that’s something I should or should not have done.I’m curious, in this particular instance, if you would’ve said something? What are your thoughts?
