The Ashes Series 2010: England's security adviser Reg Dickason, says doctor about Andy Flower .



Reg Dickason, the security officer who took Andy Flower to a skin clinic in Brisbane this week, according to the man who diagnosed the England coach’s malignant melanoma



 Andy Flower missed the second day’s play at the Gabba as he was in hospital having an operation to remove a melanoma. Melanoma is a type of skin cancer, close to his right eye. Melanomas are, pound for pound, the most serious cancers out there,” Dr Manoharan told about melanoma deaseas to Telegraph Sport. “Melanoma deaseas is dangerous,but the condition of  Andy Flower isn’t life-threatening which is only 0.3 millimetres thick. But the history of the case suggests that it has been evolving quickly, and was on its way to becoming a much more serious problem.”


Dr Shobhan Manoharan believes that the cancerous growth just beneath Flower’s right eye had been developing at some speed, and would have caused potentially fatal complications within months.


He was due to miss the third day of the Test to recuperate and to return to the team for day four. The fielding coach Richard Halsall, has been in temporary charge for this series.
