Aussie actor Hugh Jackman has been treated for skin cancer after his wife Deborra-Lee Furness begged him to see a doctor about a growth on his nose.

The 45-year-old actor revealed the news on his Instagram account, saying: “Deb said to get the mark on my nose checked. Boy she was right!”

Hugh went on to urge fans to seek medical help if they were in a similar situation. “Please don’t be foolish like me. Get yourself checked! And USE sunscreen!”

Hugh posted the advice alongside a picture of his bandaged nose where the lump had been removed.

The actor didn’t reveal any other details about his condition.
