UPDATE 1-Brazil president Bolsonaro says he has a possible skin cancer

(Adds statement from presidential office)

BRASILIA, Dec 11 (Reuters) - Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said on Wednesday that he has a possible skin cancer, after a medical visit where he had a mole removed from his ear.

The presidential office, however, said there is no sign that Bolsonaro has a cancer, adding that the president had been to a hospital in Brasilia in the afternoon. "The president is in good health, without any indication of a skin cancer and is keeping his appointments for this week," said the statement.

Earlier, Bolsonaro also said he had been advised to cancel a trip to Salvador, in the state of Bahia, due to suffering from exhaustion. (Reporting by Lisandra Paraguassu, writing by Carolina Mandl; editing by Chris Reese and Sandra Maler)
