How to Prevent Skin Cancer?
Research shows that 80% of skin cancers can be prevented. The best way to prevent skin cancer is by protecting your skin from the sun. Here are some helpful tips:
Try to avoid the sun:
- When the UV Index is at number 3 and above
- between 11:00 and 15:00 every day, where the sun's rays are very bright
* Use sunscreen with sun protection factor SPF15 + and PA ++ on all areas of unclothed skin, including lips. Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before leaving the room and reuse every 2 to 3 hours. SPF15 absorbs 93% UV radiation, while SPF30 absorbs 97% UV radiation
* Dine under a tree, umbrella, or canopy.
* Wear a wide hat, sunglasses, and dark-colored clothes that cover your arms and legs.
* Do not use tanning beds and sunlamp (equipment for sunbathing and darkening skin color).
* Beware of drugs that cause sensitivity to sunlight. Some recipes and drugs that are sold freely can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. These include medications for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and anti-acne medications. Ask your doctor about the side effects of the medication you are taking. Take additional precautions if they increase your sensitivity to sunlight.
* Check your skin condition periodically. Check the mole changes that exist on your skin. Check if there are any changes in size, shape or color. With the help of a mirror, check your face, neck, scalp, back, hands, arms, legs, toes, soles, and in your ass folds.
