Tanning and Skin Cancer
Were you told by a dermatologist that tanning led to your skin cancer diagnosis?
I was told that my sun exposure, including purposeful tanning were contributing factors to my diagnosis. Scott skincancer.net team member
Sadly, I have checked and there are tanning beds in my area. Ugh!
No, I have never been told that. It doesn’t do much good to go backwards—only move forwards. I’ve been told very limited sun exposure now, which is fine. I have accepted that. What about being asked about family history of skin cancer? That plays a role as well. ...very true! I was asked about that at my first visit with my dermatologist. April, SkinCancer.net, Moderator Sounds like a very thorough doctor!
