As we soak up the sunshine this summer, it’s important to remember that our skin needs protection too. Melanoma, the most serious type of skin cancer, can develop from too much sun exposure and it doesn’t take a sunburn to do damage.
Protect Your Skin:
*Use broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher)
*Reapply every 2 hours—and after swimming or sweating
*Wear hats, sunglasses, and protective clothing
*Stay in the shade during peak sun hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.)
Know the Signs: Check your skin regularly for any spots or moles that are:
*Asymmetrical
*Have uneven borders
*Change in color, size, or shape
*Larger than a pencil eraser
*Itching, bleeding, or not healing
