Don't get scared on seeing the title. But that is the real fact. Most of us are unaware about skin cancer. This happens especially during Summer time. As a famous proverb says, Too much of anything is good for nothing. And too much sun is definitely a bad thing.
This is even more bad if you have a light and sensitive skin. A famous dermatologist Howard Stephen says that "Avoid contact with Sun between 11am and 3pm. Try to use cover or sun block."
Most Skin cancers are non-melanoma; 75% of those are basal cell carcinomas (BCC) related to sunburn, 20% are the most serious squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and they are related to long term sun exposure and 5% are very rare types. The treatment depends on size and type.
Right now a drug named as 'Vismodegib' is the new treatment and if it doesn't obey the next procedure should be an immediate surgery. Things will get worse if this spreads to lymph gland and became fatal. So we say, "Prevention is better than Cure."
