UV rays from the sun are usually the main reason. They damage the DNA inside the cells, and over time, this damage turns into unusual growths of bumps, patches, and spots; they all show up differently. There are three main types of people usually talked about:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the slowest-growing one. It may show up as a shiny little bump or a pale flat patch, mostly on sun-exposed areas like the face.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC): <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one can look a bit rough. It may appear as a firm red lump, a scaly patch, or sometimes a sore that just won\u2019t heal properly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Melanoma: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the one doctors take very seriously. It often starts as a dark mole that begins to look different; maybe the shape changes, maybe the color shifts. And if ignored, melanoma can spread really fast.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_causes_skin_cancer\"><\/span><b>What causes skin cancer<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The biggest culprit is <\/span><b>UV radiation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that you get from the sun, especially when you\u2019re out between 10 am and 4 pm.

Here\u2019s the part that really matters:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If melanoma is found early, survival rates are <\/span><b>around 99%<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If it\u2019s found late, that number drops drastically.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So yes, skin cancer can be dangerous, but when you notice even a small early sign of skin cancer and act on it in time, the outcome changes completely.
