Q: Sunlight is a big factor in developing skin cancer, but can it also develop in places that rarely see the light?

A: Yes. And this is a misconception that a lot of people have. Believe it or not, skin cancer can develop on the soles of feet, in between the toes, the abdomen area, behind the ears and along the hairline.
