Skin Cancer
Skin cancer originates in skin cells and is caused by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells, typically triggered by UV radiation from the sun or tanning beds, which damages the DNA of skin cells. Regular self-exams, sun protection, and seeking prompt medical attention for suspicious moles or lesions are key to preventing and detecting skin cancer early, when treatment is most effective.
