Our skin may also suffer from pigmentation problems. The degree of concentration of melanin in the body determines the occurrence of these problems. Melanin is the pigment that gives color to skin, eyes and hair. It is produced by cells called melanocytes a production largely determined by your genes.

Solar problems

Previously women who wore a soft white skin were compared admired those with dark skin, who also were rejected. Naturally, “sunbathing” was not a widely used expression.

Currently, you know that exposure to the sun too much can be harmful to the health of both men and women. It has been found that some fatal allergic reactions or skin conditions are caused by ultraviolet rays.

Skin cancer

Some serious skin diseases and, therefore, more care include different types of skin cancers including malignant melanoma. Although not a problem of very common skin, each year more cases with this diagnosis are reported.

It has been found that one of the main causes of skin cancer is related to the harmful effects of exposure to excess or direct sunlight. Due to the deterioration of the ozone layer, the sun’s rays today spend more strongly than in previous years and damaging impact.

For this reason, it is necessary to take some precautions when enjoying the outdoors. This is essential to the daily use of a sunscreen, sun block at least in your skin. No matter if you stay outdoors or indoors or if you find yourself in places warm or cold weather.

Recommendations

Here are my recommendations for you and your family, especially in summer season or holiday.

The announcement of the phenomenon of child warns us not only the high temperatures will our planet but also the amount of radiation that we will receive due to the deterioration of the ozone layer; especially in countries that are close to the plane of Ecuador. The intensity of UV radiation not only affects our skin in places like the beach but in cities with higher altitude even if they are cold weather.

The main population at risk from climate phenomenon like this is a child. The solar radiation received by children although harmless to their age accumulates in the cells of your skin and generates changes throughout their lives. These changes are manifested as skin cancer in people around 50 years. For this reason, it is important to prevent these skin diseases since childhood.

The recommendations to prevent skin cancer from the child population are:

  • Using sunscreen. Here my suggestion is to apply it at least 3 times a day. If the child is under the sun, you should do every 1 hour.
  • Using mechanisms barrier as long sleeve shirts and hats covering their face, ears, and neck.
  • Avoid letting children out to the park or outdoor between 12 noon and 2 pm, because in this period, the sun’s rays are strongest.

Consult your doctor

If your skin has a minor injury with complications or some symptoms of serious problems or skin cancer, the best advice I can give for these cases it is to consult a general practitioner or dermatologist immediately.

Do you love the sun and regret not being able to enjoy the most? I understand completely because I love being in the sun! However, I understand that the health of my skin is more important. I hope that from now on you consider basic when sun exposure precautions so watch your skin and stay protected.
