Here's how:
- In a full-length mirror, inspect your skin. Start with your head and face, using a blow dryer to check your scalp.
- Check hands, including nails. Examine elbows, arms, underarms, torso and trunk.
- With your back to the mirror, use a hand mirror to check your back, the back of your neck, and other hard-to-see places.
- Sitting down, check legs and feet, including soles, heels, toes, and nails. Use the hand mirror to examine genitals.
Look for skin changes of any kind. Cancer warning signs include:
- a spot or sore that continues to itch, hurt, crust, scab, erode or bleed
- an open sore that does not heal within two weeks a skin growth, mole, beauty mark or brown spot that:
- changes color or appears pearly, translucent, tan, brown, black or multicolored
- changes in texture
- increases in size or thickness
- is asymmetrical
- is irregular in outline or border
- is bigger than 6mm, the size of a pencil eraser
- appears after age 21
DETERMINISM-
As with all skin cancers, people with fairer skin (who often have lighter hair and eye color as well) are at increased risk. Heredity/Genetics plays a major role in melanoma. About one in every 10 patients diagnosed with the disease has a family member with a history of melanoma. If your mother, father, siblings or children have had a melanoma, you are in a melanoma-prone family. Each person with a first-degree relative diagnosed with melanoma has a 50 percent greater chance of developing the disease than people who do not have a family history of the disease.
