Melanoma Causes and Symptoms

With every warm weather episode we have we must be careful to protect our skin. Too many Irish people leave their skin exposed to direct sunlight and apply very little factor if any at all.

SYMPTOMS OF MELANOMA

1. A change in the size or the colour of a mole on your skin.

2. The growth of an existing mole on your skin.

Have these checked out by your doctor if you have any worry about them. With this Summer promising some spells of warm weather I must reiterate to all my website visitors to protect the skin against direct sunlight.

STEPS TO TAKE.

1. If on a warm sunshine holiday , sit in the shade.

2. Wear floppy loose and cool clothes.

3. Reapply suncream AFTER entering the seawater.
