With pool season upon us its important to remind ourselves
of our friend/enemy in the sky. You're never too young or too
old to be harmed by the sun. It is responsible for more than 90
percent of all skin cancers, which are now occurring at the epidemic
rate of more than a million new cases each year in the
United States.
The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends that, in addition
to an annual professional skin examination, you do a head-totoe
self-examination at least once every three months. Call a
doctor immediately if you see any of these warning signs:
• A skin growth that increases in size and appears pearly,
translucent, tan, brown, black, or multicolored.
• A mole that changes in color or in texture, becomes irregular
in outline, increases in size or thickness, or is greater than 1 /4”
in diameter.
• A spot or growth that continues to itch, hurt, scab, erode, or
bleed.
• An open sore that persists for more than four weeks or that
heals and then reopens.

Fun In The Sun!
Each year more than half of all new skin cancer cases occur in
individuals over the age of 65. Blame a lifetime of sun exposure.
Any older person who requires medication may be at increased
risk of developing photosensitivity, an intense skin reaction to the
sun, which can be triggered by a number of prescription drugs.
When your doctor prescribes a medication, be sure to ask if it can
produce such a response. The more carefully you practice sun
safety, the healthier and more attractive your skin will stay. Please
stop by the Wellness Center for more information on sun safety.
