Answers:
Absolutely. My mum got one removed from between her toes
Skin cancer (melanoma) occurs when high-energy UV radiation from the Sun strikes your skin. The UV-B photons have enough energy to damage DNA molecules. Sometimes, they are damaged in a way that disables the cell's natural self-termination code, and the cell starts multiplying out of control (i.e., cancer).

Melanoma almost always occurs on areas exposed to the Sun (your toes get plenty of sunlight when you wear open-toed shoes), and is more common among light-skinned people living in sunny climates.
1st nothing called sun cancer but the true term is skin cancer and it usually occur in sun exposed areas but it can occur even in anal canal but the sun rays note the only etiological factor
What in the world is sun cancer? If you mean melanoma, it is rare other than in exposed skin.
