These enzymes can be topically applied in creams etc, and are said to use a certain mechanism to repair the damaged DNA. I don't know whether they can actually cure an established skin tumor, or sink deep enough to if they can, but I wonder if it would help repair any further damage beforte more tumors appear that are not connected to the initial ones? Perhaps it's worth more investigation? [/quote]    Insert an Image File
