Checking your skin regularly may help you spot skin cancer early.
Mole or skin cancer?
Almost all of us have moles. The more moles a person has, the higher the risk for melanoma. It can be difficult to know whether something on your skin is a harmless mole, normal sun damage, or a sign of cancer. When in doubt, see a professional.
What to watch for:
- Harmless colored spots that range from 1mm to 10mm.
- Uniform in shape and even colored. May be raised.
- The more moles or freckles you have the higher your risk of skin cancer.
- May have uneven borders and multiple colors like brown and black.
- Observe moles carefully for any sign of change.
Prevention:
- Seek shade (especially during high-risk hours of 11 a.m. - 3 p.m.)
- Cover Up (wear long sleeves, pants, hat and sunscreen
- Avoid tanning beds
- Wear sunscreen (use SPF30 or higher)
