6 Disease Symptoms You Should Never Ignore

Skin changes – just a mole or skin cancer?

Your skin is like a map. Any changes on this “map” can significantly influence your life’s entire course. Therefore, don’t ignore what your skin has to say to you. Any change in the size, shape, or color of a mole or other spot can be a sign of skin cancer.

See a dermatologist every year for a thorough examination and even a biopsy may be required. Make sure you don’t mistake potentially dangerous spots with freckles and suffer the consequences later. Also, get accustomed to using sunscreen products as an important part of your skincare routine.

Using sunscreen can decrease your risk of skin cancers and skin precancers. Regular daily use of SPF 15 sunscreen can reduce your risk of developing squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) by about 40 percent, and lower your melanoma risk by 50 percent, according to The Skin Cancer Foundation.

You can also prevent premature skin aging caused by the sun, including wrinkles and age spots.

In addition to the 6 symptoms presented, there are 2 more symptoms that are very common, which is why we tend to ignore them, but I can assure you that is not the case. Check them out on the next page.
