South Shore Skin Center Supports “Don’t Fry Day” on May 22nd
DATELINE: COHASSET, HINGHAM AND PLYMOUTH, MASS…
May 22, 2009 has been designated as “Don’t Fry Day” by the National Council on Skin Cancer Prevention and is sponsored by the Children’s Melanoma Prevention Foundation of Hingham. “Don’t Fry Day” is dedicated to educating children and teens about skin cancer and its prevention. Recent data has shown that New England has the highest concentration of melanoma cases, and melanoma is the #1 cancer in young, white American women. South Shore Skin Center encourages families to practice being SunAWARE on “Don’t Fry Day” and to share their knowledge with others in order to prevent skin cancer.
Skin cancer is most commonly caused by overexposure to sunlight and artificial UV radiation (as in tanning beds). South Shore Skin Center recommends that everyone follow SunAWARE, an acronym that stands for:
-
Avoid unprotected UV exposure any time and seek shade
-
Wear sun protective clothing including hats and sunglasses
-
Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen prior to UV exposure and reapply every two hours
-
Routinely check your whole body for changes in your skin and report suspicious changes to a health care practitioner.
-
Educate your family and community about sun protection.
The doctors at South Shore Skin center also advise that anyone can develop skin cancer anywhere on the body. It’s important to see a dermatologist for spots that are new or changing and that are:
-
-
Persistent
-
Easily irritated
-
Enlarging
-
Recurrent
-
