May is Melanoma Awareness Month!With summer coming up, it’s important to start thinking about sun safety! Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer and, in most cases, is related to UV-induced damage. Tanning beds and the sun are sources of UV. Severe sunburns, especially at a young age, have also been linked to melanoma.
When caught early, melanoma is highly curable. Follow these tips to check your skin regularly:
PRACTICING SUN SAFETY!
Wear sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.
Wear protective clothing such as a hat and
sunglasses.
Look for shade mid-day when the sun’s rays are
the most intense.
Don’t use tanning beds.
Protect children’s skin. Bad sunburns in
childhood double their chances for melanoma
later in life.
The ABCDEs Monthly Skin Check
AsymmetricalLook for moles or growths that are asymmetrical or uneven.
BorderDoes a mole or growth have an irregular border?
ColorDoes a mole or growth have multiple colors?
DiameterIs the diameter larger than the size of a pencil eraser?
EvolvedHas the mole or growth gotten bigger in size or thickness?
