This July 4th weekend, make sure you use plenty of sunscreen, and void the 'burn'. It’s easy to reduce your risk of skin cancer by practicing sun safety. Things you should know about sunburn from the Skin Cancer Foundation:
*Repeated sunburns raise your risk. For fair-skinned people, especially those with genetic predisposition, sunburn plays a clear role in developing melanoma. Research shows that the UV rays that damage skin can also alter a tumor-suppressing gene, giving injured cells less chance to repair before progressing to cancer.
*People who work or play sports outdoors have a greater risk of frequent sunburns that can result in skin cancer.
*Even one blistering sunburn in childhood or adolescence more than doubles your chances of developing melanoma later in life.
*Skin damage builds up over time starting with your very first sunburn. The more you burn, the greater your risk of skin cancer. Subsequent UV damage can occur even when there is no obvious burn.
*Five or more sunburns more than doubles your risk of developing potentially deadly melanoma
