Cookie asked:


I go a sunburn and my mom said i greatly increases risk of skin cancer, it was pretty bad for a sun burn and i have a friend who died from melanoma, should i be worried?

It’s me! asked:


Studies have shown that utilizing a tanning salon lowers the risk of breast cancer. It also states that the chance of breast cancer in a person is great than the possible risk of getting skin cancer by going to a tanning salon.
Jojo- Thanks for your answer. I thought it sounded a little odd.

I do have a family history of breast cancer, and I have already had several lumbs removed when I was 19 that thankfully were not cancer, but even now at 29, I still have check ups every 6 months and a mamo once a year.

Now, I have been to some pretty hot countries. Countries with temperatures of over 40 degrees Celsius. If overexposure to the sun causes skin cancer then these people are going to be at huge risk surely? So, why don’t they get skin cancer?

what? asked:
