Signs Of Skin Cancer
Signs of skin cancer are important to know. With
a million new cases reported each year, it’s become so common
that about 50 percent of Americans over age 65 are expected
to have at least one case of treatable non-malignant skin
cancer in their lifetime.
The main culprit is the sun. Every minute you’re exposed
to the sun, carcinogenic solar UV radiation creates growth
of highly reactive free radicals that contribute to both
premature skin aging and the formation of cancers of the
skin.
The highly intensive sun exposure of a
day at the beach seems to be much more harmful than a farmer’s
gradual long term occupational exposure.
And, people who’ve had blistering sunburns have twice as
much skin cancer as people who were never burned at all.
But, there’s no such thing as a “safe tan.”
Those with fair freckled skin, blond or
red hair and blue or light colored eyes are at the greatest
risk of the disease. And, it’s more prevalent closer to
the equator. For example, the Arizona statistics are three
times those of Boston. This is because skin cancer is primarily
associated with sunburn.
Although, many are aware of the connection
between summer sun and cancer, few people realize that winter
sun exposure, sun reflected off snow and indoor tanning
from tanning beds or sun lamps can be just as harmful.
Skin cancers seldom hurt, so don’t count
on pain as a warning signal. And, with about 20 square feet
of skin, occasional bumps or skin blemishes are common,
but not necessarily cancerous.
However, to be safe, any new small shiny or waxy lump or
pinkish, red growth lasting more than two weeks without
healing should be checked out immediately for early detection
and treatment.
Of the one million new cases each year,
about 95 percent, if detected and treated early, have a
95 percent cure rate. Even malignant melanoma, the most
life threatening form, can be treated effectively if detected
at an early stage while it’s still localized.
