It's #MelanomaMonday!

From https://healthfinder.gov/

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the United States. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the main cause of skin cancer. UV damage can also cause wrinkles and blotches or spots on your skin. The good news is that skin cancer can be prevented, and it can almost always be cured when it’s found and treated early.

May is Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month. During the month, you can take action to prevent skin cancer and reduce the risk of UV damage:

• Stay out of the sun as much as possible between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
• Use sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher. Put on sunscreen every 2 hours and after you swim or sweat.
• Cover up with long sleeves and a hat.
• Check your skin regularly for changes.
