Basal Cell carcinoma is one of the most frequently occurring forms of cancer. Approximately 2.6 million cases of Basal Cell cancer are diagnosed yearly in the United States. There are 4 warning signs of BBC including: open sore, shiny bump, pink growth, or red patch. BBC occurs most often in areas that are most exposed to the sun such as, face, neck, scalp, shoulders, and back. This disease can also create tumors on many parts of the body. People at high risks are those that have red or blonde hair, and blue or green eyes. This is due to more light hitting skin through a lighter color such as blonde. The elderly tend to have a higher risk of basal Cell due to a weaker skin fragment from aging. But recently most diagnoses have been patients between the ages of 20-40, most being positioned for work in the outdoors.

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer. It begins in the basal cells, which are at the bottom of the outer skin layer (epidermis). It occurs most often on parts of the body that are frequently exposed to the sun, such as:

“Exposure to tanning beds before the age of 30 increases melanoma risk by 75 percent.” This is a quote on an advertisement in Allure magazine. Tanning beds cause skin to age prematurely. It causes the skin to lose its elasticity and increases skin cancer. Tans are caused by harmful UV radiation from the sun or tanning lamps, and those who have one, have sustained skin cell damage. A person with a hereditary risk of melanoma has a greatly increased risk of developing melanoma during his or her lifetime. There is also an increased risk of pancreatic cancer in families with familial melanoma, but that is rare. Neutrogena published this ad in Allure magazine, July 2015. Their intentions to persuade on the damages of tanning beds and presenting their products to reverse damage previously done were effective.

It’s October of your fifth grade year, at the end of the day. You’ve gotten back into the swing of things, your teacher is awesome, and you’re at the top of the elementary school food chain. You’re about to walk outside. The weather is beautiful; the trees are still mostly green with a few ambitious leaves already changing color. The sky is blue and the sun is shining in the way it only does during fall. You’re going to remember how it felt to walk across the parking lot on that day for a long time. You’re happy, like you normally are when you leave school, and you get in the car. That’s when Mom tells you your little brother has cancer.

Skin cancer is a disease that can affect any one. Skin cancer includes many types that can be classified as severe or superficial. Consequently, treatement of skin cancer depends on the degree of severity a person has. In the following paper, we will shed lights on the types of skin cancer and its causes. Finally, we will investigate how to treat the different types of cancer and how to avoid it.

30. Sling ‘Em Whether it’s your child, a grandchild, or you just love to hold any baby you can get hold of – do yourself a favor and put them in a sling. Hitching them to your hip only strains your back so distribute that weight as evenly as possibly. In fact, the same can be said for your shopping, while you may not be able to put it in a sling, you can distribute the weight more evenly.

According to American Cancer Society, in our bodies most people are born with two bean shaped organs, found attached to the back wall of the abdomen, these are called kidneys. As you grow in life your kidneys have multiple jobs, but the biggest job is that they act as a filter in your body. They will take in the blood and filter any substance not needed, such as excess water, salt, and other waste. Once the process of filtering anything bad begins, your kidneys will kick out what we know as urine. American Cancer Society says the kidneys will also “help keep your blood pressure controlled”, by making a hormone called, renin. Need more red blood cells? Don’t worry, your kidneys will make another hormone, known as erythropoietin, sending a message

Would you feel powerful knowing that you have the resources to save your client’s life? As massage therapists we are given the opportunity to examine the body more intimately than most, if not all, other medical professions. With this knowledge in mind it is imperative for us to educate ourselves on specific pathologies that could potentially harm us or harm our client if left undiagnosed. There are many harmful pathologies, but the one I want to discuss with you today is called Morpheaform Basal Cell Carcinoma. Basal Cell Carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer with about eighty percent of all skin cancer diagnoses concluding with this result.

I believe there is hope even through the worst type of situations. Most people don’t know it or feel it, but hope is hiding somewhere near you begging to come out. In many situations, people cannot find their hope, but I assure you it’s there. Quite a while ago my grandma, my dad’s mom, was told something that no family wants to hear.

Squamous cell carcinoma is second most common type of skin cancer, after basal cell carcinoma. Squamous cell cancer spreads faster than basal cell cancer, but still is usually relatively slow-growing. It can spread (metastasize) to other locations, including internal organs.
