It is projected that one in five Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer in their lifetime.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cooperhealth.org\/doctors\/dawn-topper-msn\">Dawn E. Topper, MSN, FNP-BC, NP-C<\/a>, an advanced practice provider at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cooperhealth.org\/\">Cooper University Health Care<\/a>, who cares for patients of all ages, has a special interest in skin cancer prevention. During routine exams with her patients, Dawn uses her expertise to check moles, wounds that are not healing properly, sunspots from previous sunburns, and unusual changes in skin for signs of cancer<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot every lesion turns out to be cancer,\u201d Dawn says. \u201cBut I will refer patients who have any suspicious changes in their skin to a dermatologist for further evaluation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While it is important to regularly check obvious areas that are exposed to the sun \u2013 like the face, back, chest, arms, and legs \u2013 Dawn also recommends paying attention to areas of the body you may not think to check for skin changes. These areas include your eyelids, buttocks, and between your toes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dawn also offers the following skin cancer prevention tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use a sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher.<\/li>\n<li>Apply sunscreen 15 minutes before going into the sun and be sure to reapply regularly. \u00a0<em>Spray<\/em>\u00a0sunscreens are popular because they are easy to apply, but for better\u00a0<em>sun protection<\/em>, it\u2019s best to use a rub-on lotion. Whichever you choose, make sure the product has the proper level of UVA and UVB protection.<\/li>\n<li>Apply sunscreen to all areas of your body exposed to the sun. Make sure to apply to often overlooked areas like the top of your head, ears, and feet.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t forget your lips. Use a lip balm that has adequate UVA and UVB protection.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t skip sunscreen on a cloudy day. UV rays penetrate the clouds and you can still get a sunburn.<\/li>\n<li>Be especially careful when in or around the water. UV rays bounce off of the water\u2019s reflective surface. Remember to reapply sunscreen after spending time in the water.<\/li>\n<li>Wear sunscreen even if you have a dark complexion or tan easily. Everyone is susceptible to skin cancer, though it can look different on different skin tones.<\/li>\n<li>While sunscreens are great, the best way to protect yourself from the sun\u2019s harmful rays is to stay in the shade. If going out, wear light-weight clothing that covers your arms and legs and top it off with a wide-brimmed hat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You\u2019ve heard this before but it bears repeating \u2013 there\u2019s no such thing as safe indoor tanning. Tanning beds can be more harmful than the sun and increase your risk for skin cancer and prematurely age your skin. If you are looking for a sun-kissed glow, there are plenty of sunless tanning lotions, sprays and other options on the market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite your best efforts to protect your skin, if you do get a sunburn, drink plenty of fluids, take a cool shower or bath, and moisturize your skin to help with discomfort and recovery,\u201d Dawn says. \u201cHowever, call your doctor if you experience severe sunburn with blisters covering a large portion of your body.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are many benefits to being out in the sunshine. The sun provides a natural source of vitamin D, can boost your mood, help you sleep, and reduce stress. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/a-to-z-guides\/ss\/slideshow-sunlight-health-effects\">Moderate doses of sunlight, between 5 to 15 minutes \u2013 and up to 30 minutes if you have dark skin \u2013 can be beneficial.<\/a> You must, however, be careful to protect your skin from too much sun.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the sun, be smart, be safe, and when you will be in the sun for an extended period always wear sunscreen!<\/p>\n<p>For an appointment with a Cooper primary care provider, please call <a href=\"tel:8008266737\">800.8.COOPER<\/a> (800.826.6737) or use our <a href=\"https:\/\/appointments.cooperhealth.org\/\">online appointment request form<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"espanol\"><\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Haga de la prevenci\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer de piel una prioridad este verano<\/h2>\n<p>A medida que nos acercamos al largo verano y pasamos m\u00e1s tiempo al aire libre, es hora de tomar en serio la prevenci\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer de piel, el segundo tipo de c\u00e1ncer m\u00e1s com\u00fan en los EE.

Durante los ex\u00e1menes de rutina con sus pacientes, Dawn usa su experiencia para revisar la piel en busca de lesiones, heridas que no se est\u00e1n curando adecuadamente y manchas solares de quemaduras solares anteriores.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo todas las lesiones resultan ser c\u00e1ncer de piel\u201d, dice ella. \u201cPero referir\u00e9 a los pacientes que tengan lesiones o cambios en la piel a un dermat\u00f3logo para su evaluaci\u00f3n&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Si bien es importante controlar con regularidad las \u00e1reas de la piel que est\u00e1n m\u00e1s expuestas a los rayos ultravioleta del sol \u2013 como la cara, la espalda, el pecho, los brazos y las piernas \u2013 Dawn tambi\u00e9n recomienda prestar atenci\u00f3n especial a las \u00e1reas del cuerpo en las que quiz\u00e1s no se le ocurra buscar cambios en la piel. Estas \u00e1reas incluyen los p\u00e1rpados, las nalgas y entre los dedos de los pies.<\/p>\n<p>Dawn tambi\u00e9n ofrece los siguientes consejos para la prevenci\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer de piel:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use un protector solar de SPF 30 o m\u00e1s.<\/li>\n<li>Aplique protector solar 15 minutos antes de exponerse al sol y aseg\u00farese de volver a aplicarlo con regularidad. Los protectores solares en aerosol son populares porque son f\u00e1ciles de aplicar, pero para una mejor protecci\u00f3n solar, es mejor usar una loci\u00f3n para frotar. Cualquiera que elija, aseg\u00farese de que el producto tenga el nivel adecuado de protecci\u00f3n UVA y UVB.<\/li>\n<li>Aplique protector solar en todas las \u00e1reas de su cuerpo expuestas al sol. Aseg\u00farese de aplicarlo en \u00e1reas que a menudo se pasan por alto, como la parte superior de la cabeza, las orejas y los pies.<\/li>\n<li>No olvides sus labios. Aseg\u00farese de aplicar un b\u00e1lsamo labial que tenga una protecci\u00f3n adecuada contra los rayos UVA y UVB.<\/li>\n<li>No omita el protector solar en un d\u00eda nublado. A\u00fan puede sufrir quemaduras de sol en un d\u00eda nublado.<\/li>\n<li>Tenga especial cuidado con lugares reflectantes como el agua y la playa, incluso en un d\u00eda nublado.<\/li>\n<li>Use protector solar incluso si tiene la tez oscura o se broncea f\u00e1cilmente. Todo el mundo es susceptible al c\u00e1ncer de piel, aunque puede verse diferente en diferentes tonos de piel.<\/li>\n<li>Si bien los protectores solares son excelentes, la mejor manera de protegerse de los rayos da\u00f1inos del sol es permanecer a la sombra. Si sale, use ropa liviana que cubra sus brazos y piernas y c\u00fabrela con un sombrero de ala ancha.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ya ha escuchado esto antes, pero vale la pena repetirlo: no existe el bronceado en interiores seguro. Las camas solares pueden ser m\u00e1s da\u00f1inas que el sol y aumentar el riesgo de c\u00e1ncer de piel y envejecer prematuramente la piel. Si est\u00e1 buscando un brillo ba\u00f1ado por el sol, hay muchas lociones bronceadoras, aerosoles y otras opciones en el mercado.<\/p>\n<p>Hay muchos beneficios al estar bajo el sol. El sol proporciona una fuente natural de vitamina D, puede mejorar su estado de \u00e1nimo, ayudarlo a dormir y reducir el estr\u00e9s. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/a-to-z-guides\/ss\/slideshow-sunlight-health-effects\">Las dosis moderadas de luz solar, entre 5 y 15 minutos, y hasta 30 minutos si tiene la piel oscura, pueden ser beneficiosas<\/a>. Sin embargo, debe tener cuidado de proteger su piel del exceso de sol.<\/p>\n<p>Cuando se trata del sol, sea inteligente, est\u00e9 seguro, y cuando est\u00e9 bajo el sol por un per\u00edodo prolongado, \u00a1use siempre protector solar!<\/p>\n<p>Para una cita con un proveedor de atenci\u00f3n primaria de Cooper, llame al <a href=\"tel:8008266737\">800.8.COOPER<\/a> (800.826.6737) o <a href=\"https:\/\/appointments.cooperhealth.org\/\">utilice nuestro formulario de solicitud de cita en l\u00ednea<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Para leer en Espa\u00f1ol, por favor haga clic aqu\u00ed As we head into the summer and spend more time outdoors, it\u2019s time to get serious about preventing skin cancer. \u00a0The incidence of skin cancer, the second most common cancer in the U.S., has increased in recent years according to the National Cancer Institute.
