melanoma: what kind the skin disease is it ?
"Hello everyone! Welcome to our channel. Today, we're diving into an important topic—melanoma, the most dangerous type of skin cancer. Let's understand what it is, how it develops, and what you can do to prevent it."
"Melanoma develops from the melanin-producing cells known as melanocytes. While it typically occurs on the skin, it can also rarely develop in places like the mouth, intestines, or eyes. In women, melanomas most commonly appear on the legs, and in men, on the back."
"About 25% of melanomas develop from moles. Key changes in a mole that might indicate melanoma include a rapid increase in size, irregular edges, color changes, itchiness, or skin breakdown."
"The primary cause of melanoma is exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light, from either the sun or tanning devices. Those with low levels of melanin in their skin are at a higher risk. Avoiding excessive UV exposure and using sunscreen can significantly reduce your risk."
"Melanoma treatment often involves surgical removal of the cancerous tissue. If detected early, most people are cured. However, if the melanoma has spread, treatments like immunotherapy, radiation, or chemotherapy may be needed."
"In the U.S., the five-year survival rate for localized melanoma is 99%. If it spreads to the lymph nodes, the rate drops to 65%, and if it spreads to distant organs, it's about 25%. The survival rate depends on factors like the melanoma's thickness and the speed of cell division."
"Globally, Australia and New Zealand have the highest rates of melanoma, while it is less common in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In the U.S., it occurs more often in men than women and has become more common since the 1960s, particularly among people of European descent."
"Remember the early signs of melanoma with the 'ABCDEEFG' mnemonic: Asymmetry, Borders, Color, Diameter, Evolving, Elevated, Firm, and Growing. Be vigilant for these changes in your moles."
"UV radiation from tanning beds is especially dangerous. The International Agency for Research on Cancer states that people who use tanning devices before the age of 30 are 75% more likely to develop melanoma. So, it's crucial to avoid tanning beds."
