Skin Cancer Treatment

In North India

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that starts in your skin and is often linked to sun exposure. It can affect anyone, but if you spend a lot of time in the sun, you might be at a higher risk. Because the skin is visible, signs are often apparent, but they are sometimes ignored. Some skin cancers grow quickly, while others might spread if not treated in time. Regular skin checks and early attention to changes can help detect the condition early and improve outcomes.

Symptoms
Symptoms usually appear as changes in your skin. You might notice a new mole or a change in an existing one. Some spots might become darker, irregular, or even start bleeding. A sore that does not heal is also a warning sign. Itching or crusting in specific areas can also occur. These symptoms might develop slowly, and you need to check them if they persist.

Causes
Skin cancer occurs when skin cells are damaged, mainly by exposure to UV radiation. Sun exposure over time increases the risk. Tanning beds, fair skin and a history of sunburns are also important factors. In some cases, family history and certain medical conditions might be contributing factors.

Diagnosis
Doctors usually perform a physical examination and closely check your skin. A dermatoscope might be used for better clarity, but a biopsy is required to confirm cancer.

Treatment
Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, and other targeted treatments depending on the condition. The aim is to remove the cancer and prevent it from spreading in your body.
