Irritable Spot On Cheek With Severe Pricking, Have Got It Operated. What Are The Chances Of Recurrence?

I have, myself, experienced an irritable spot on my right cheek which had for years been increasing in pricking and disagreeable sensations; and in June last assumed the decided character of a Cancer; of which I was perfectly relieved by Doctr. Tate in about two months by an easy course, under the operation of which I felt no confinement, or other inconvenience at that time, nor any injury to my constitution since then, but I ponder endlessly of possibilities such that it might return.
