Should I be worried?

Do you think I have a big problem? In 10 plus years I grow fig trees, I never had a disease/pest issues, but the last couple of years, it seems like it rains more and it brings some issues. I'm just worried that it could be cancer, which could decimate my collection. So far it appears on my Marangiana, CDD Gegantina and Lampeira-1. IMG_5621.JPEGIMG_5623.JPEGIMG_5624.JPEG
 
It's trunk canker.....I had it on one of my Preto trees and I lost it....The cause is typically occurs after heavy pruning.....My reference states that it slowly causes the bark to crack and eventually becomes separated from the wood. Treatment is "healing solutions mixed with fungacides"...I was too slow to react.....

Thanks a lot, I will try to spray with fungicide. Maybe, I'll still be able to save the trees :)
