🎯 May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month.

What is one of the worst things you can do if you are concerned about a spot or mole that appears to be changing? Don’t rely on Dr. Google!

The internet and social media can be beneficial for gaining insight and information about a possible skin cancer diasnosis. In fact, 72 percent of adult internet users have searched for health information online, including to locate resources, to deep dive about a diagnosis, find clinical trials and stay ahead of current research trends.

But not all information on the internet is factual. Distinguishing misinformation from fact can be difficult to navigate. Always check for sources and check to see how old the data is, when learning online.

Speak to your doctor, never hesitate if you see a mole or spot that changes, bleeds or itches, and schedule an exam if you have any questions. Use the internet to educate yourself but do so wisely.

☀️ Does your bottle of sunscreen last you for years? You may be applying it wrong.

One ounce of sunscreen, or the equivalent of a shot glass full, is the amount you should be using to cover exposed areas of the body. If you’re planning on spending a long time outdoors, you should reapply every 2 hours or after sweating or swimming, since it does wear off.

When looking for a sunscreen, the American Academy of Dermatology recommends a broad spectrum one that will block both ultraviolet A (known as UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) rays of the sun. Both can cause cancer. Make sure to select an SPF of 30 or higher and pick one that is water resistant.

As one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime, using sunscreen will lower your risk of skin cancer as well as early skin aging that is caused by spending lots of time in the sun.

May is Skin Cancer / Melanoma Awareness Month. The American Cancer Society estimates that about 106,110 new melanomas will be diagnosed this year in the United States with nearly 44,000 being women. Over 7,000 people are expected to die of melanoma.

Melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer. It can suddenly appear without warning but can also develop from or near an existing mole. It can appear anywhere but is most common on the upper back, torso, lower legs, head and neck. As melanoma frequently spreads to the lymph nodes and most internal organs, early detection and treatment is important. If detected early and treated properly, melanoma is highly treatable.

🎯 To spot skin cancer early, the American Academy of Dermatology recommends paying attention to the ABCDEs of melanoma:

Asymmetry: one half of the mole doesn’t match the other half.
Border irregularity: the edges are ragged, blurred or notched.
Color: varies from one area to another.
Diameter: melanomas are usually greater than the size of a pencil eraser, they can be smaller.
Evolving: when a mole or skin lesion looks different from the rest or changes in size, color or shape.

If you notice any spots or moles that itch, change or bleed, have it checked out by a dermatologist right away.

🤔 Everyone is at risk for skin cancer. How much do you know about basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma?

These are the most common forms of skin cancer and are known as non-melanoma skin cancers. They arise in the top layers of the skin and occur on any sun-exposed area of the body. They are often found on the ears, face, bald scalp and neck.

Basal cell carcinoma frequently looks like a pearly bump. Squamous cell carcinoma often looks like a rough, scaly area or an ulcerated bump that may bleed.

Non-melanoma skin cancer spreads slowly but if left untreated, can lead to disfigurement. If you see anything on your skin that changes, itches or bleeds, it is important to make an appointment with your dermatologist and have an exam. Skin cancer is highly curable when caught early and treated properly.
