The terror of the word cancer shares the same intensity all over the world. Cancer is a chronic disease with a high death rate. It can succumb to any part of the body and what’s even more dangerous is that it can go un-noticed till the time it turns fatal. Cancer of the skin is caused due to the development of abnormal cells that are well capable of invading and spreading to the other parts of the body. More than 90% of all skin cancer cases are caused by over exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. The reason why this is becoming more common than it should is partly because of the ozone layer which gets thinner and thinner everyday (thanks to our human nature of over using our resources) and partly because of the increasing trend of using indoor tanning beds and booths that use heavy ultraviolet rays on people who care more about the color of their skin than the actual health of it. As a matter of fact, skin cancer cases due to tanning beds are more common than lung cancer cases causes by smoking. People with lighter skin shades are at higher risks of getting skin cancer and so do people with a poor immune system.
Skin cancer is diagnosed by Biopsy. If a patient is lucky enough to discover the cancer in its developmental stage, they can seek treatment at the hands of a trusted dermatologist. The treatment to cure skin cancer is called MOHS Surgery Jacksonville FL. In MOHS surgery, the affected area of the skin is peeled off and tested for growth of the cancer cells. After determining the intensity of the growth, the surgeon decides whether there is need to remove more skin tissue. This is repeated till the only skin left at the affected area is free from any cancer cells.
