Moles in the sun


Moles in the sunIn the summer we with pleasure fills the body is the sun. Caution! Excessive tanning can be a very dangerous disease, warns the doctor-oncodermatology Alexander Alexandrovich Kolobanov.


"Doctor, we are going to talk about harmful the sun, and you are sunburned as if lying in the sun for hours.


Really, I adore the sun and sunbathe love. Reasonable communication with the sun useful: under the influence of the rays, the body produces vitamin D, which is responsible for strong bones and teeth, strengthens the circulatory system and the nervous system, increases immunity. But sunbathe it wisely, so let's start with rule number one: take a sun bath only during the hours when the sunlight is not too active in the morning until 10 o'clock, in the evening after 17 hours. The time from 12 to 17 hours to spend in the shade during these hours burning infrared radiation is particularly strong. - And for those whose skin is already dark, the sun not so scary? - It all depends on the amount of melanin that protects the skin from solar radiation. Really, everyone has different skin type, and time of exposure to the sun is the value of. For example, just half an hour in the sun in different people can give a completely different skin reactions. The dark-skinned man a lot of melanin, so protective reaction stronger and no trace of sun exposure will not remain. Among whites, especially red-haired, blue-eyed man, expressed the albino with sensitive skin at the same time there is a burn, is very harmful for skin.




Means, red and white to tan harmful?



People with fair skin who have a limited amount of melanin pigment in the skin, prolonged exposure to the sun really dangerous. Especially those who have many moles. For example, the white inhabitants of Australia, where the sun shines all year round, the incidence of melanoma - cancer - increases dramatically. The same happens with our compatriots in Israel - because not all lived before, in the tropical heat, the majority spent his whole life in the middle lane with moderate solar radiation. Dangerous are both types of rays: infrared rays cause redness and burns, which can cause degeneration of moles. Ultraviolet the radiation is a well - known provocateur melanoma.



- Does it matter how much time in the sun?
Is the total time of exposure, i.e. exposure to the sun, is the decisive factor. It is pointless to close dangerous places with moles towel or Panama, seal moles patch - melanoma does not sleep and under such cover. Sunburn increases the risk of disease many times.




- Now very fashionable sunroom, where the exposure is strictly controlled. A tan is not harmful?


- Solarium absolutely contraindicated for those who have many moles on the body. The more that women do not know the measures come to me just mulattos and asked to see the increased moles - well what can I say? Fashion tan becomes life-threatening.





- Who most often affects melanoma?
Rarely it occurs in children. Melanoma catches people in middle and old age. Moreover, in elderly people on the face of it flows a little easier and a better forecast. Young people melanoma affects the limbs, torso, with the most unfavorable prognosis in red hair.





- This disease is hereditary?
I would say that the predisposition to the disease may be hereditary, and those in the family there were cases of melanoma, need to be especially careful. But the disease itself provokes a number of circumstances and situations in life.





- How does this dangerous disease?
Rarely it can start on a clean, healthy skin, and the sun - the first provoker disease. But it usually takes place nevi, or moles. There is an increase in cell division, and the mole can begin to transform. Most of these moles doctors call melanopsin.





- How do they look?
Usually moles are learned and not innate - last reborn significantly less. Not necessarily convex or hairy nevus is often just as dangerous can be flat. Reborn also more moles that are located in places not covered with hair on the soles, palms, inside the shoulders and hips. By the way, these moles should not be afraid to delete with the preventive purpose - they are likely candidates for rebirth in life-threatening.





- It turns out that almost all moles are dangerous?
- Every person is born with a certain number of moles. Without moles of people does not happen. If in the course of life, especially before puberty, they grow in proportion to the body, this is normal. If they start to grow more quickly, as if anticipating the growth of the person, it should be alerted. These moles should regularly show oncodermatology.




What can cause the growth and transformation of a mole?


Mainly injury. Accidentally touched the mole, hurt - hurry to the doctor. But not in a beauty salon or in the first medical institution, and in specialized, where there are skilled medical oncodermatology. Unfortunately, too many cases, when a mole removed without consultation with the oncologist or remove hair from a mole electroepilation or tweezers. This cannot be done in any case, because often after surgery, inflammation, and it can be a triggering mechanism for the growth of moles and transformation of normal cells. In addition to injury, there are the usual life situations. For example, during pregnancy, moles can change the type and color, because in this period, all processes in the body occur most rapidly. Sometimes a mosquito bite can cause degeneration of moles: you scratched a mole once, twice, combed, appeared crust, you ripped off, it again increased in General, again trauma. Injured moles and when washing very hard sponge. We should make it a rule: if body a lot of moles, wash only with a soft sponge, and prominent moles generally gently wash hand. By the way, those moles that are constantly under the shoulder, at the waist, the neck, where you wear a chain, at the point of contact with the edges of the sheets and subjected to pressure or friction, it is best to remove in advance, oseltamivir. But only after consultation with the oncologist. And I'll say it again: the passion of the sun remains one of the main causes of melanoma. How is the trigger of rebirth, be traced back to the end fails, it often happens imperceptibly. Therefore, we must be attentive to the moles and to follow them. Unfortunately, sometimes in cosmetic clinics doctors do not always know how to properly approach the problem.




- How? It seems you clearly said that to remove a mole without consulting oncodermatology not?



"Yes, but how is the question. For example, if the mole physician identified as melanopsin, it is only necessary to surgically dissect, all the rest can be removed with electrocomm. If the diagnosis is wrong, the consequences can lead to tragedy - I'm not exaggerating. So that advice may be, and a few onkogematologov required.



- How to avoid mistakes in choosing a specialist?
- Apply only large specialized centers with considerable experience. If necessary, the doctor will examine the mole special apparatus - a Dermatoscope. This magnifying glass with light.




- Is there any way to prevent disease?


Unfortunately, melanoma remains one of the most insidious cancer and rarely makes itself known in advance. You should try not to injure moles, if this happens, run to the doctor, to prophylactically remove moles on areas of friction, to observe melanotaenia moles, preferably from the same experienced physician to have a clear dynamics.





What should alert the patient and physician?
- Disproportionate growth of moles.


- Change the color of the mole is dangerous as darkening and whitening.


- Bleeding, ulceration.


- Loss of hair from a mole.


- The emergence of itching in the place of moles.


- Redness - inflammatory areola around moles.


- The appearance of new moles.


- Changes in mole - seals spots.


Violation or full erase skin pattern on the mole.


- Peeling.





- What advice you want to give to our readers?
- The main thing I want to emphasize again, if you find the slightest anxiety symptom, rather run to the doctor.




For those who have not been on vacation, here are a few rules of proper conduct in the sun. By following these simple recommendations, you not only improve health but also reduces the risk of dangerous diseases.




- Stay in the sun safely with the morning until 10 o'clock, in the evening after 17 hours.


- People with lots of moles stay out of the sun it is better to reduce. Solarium you banned.


- Never let redness and sunburn on the skin. If this happens, spend 2-3 days in the shade.


- After bathing in the sea necessarily rinse the skin with fresh water. Salty droplets create the effect of the lens - the sun burns the skin.


Even young and healthy people to stay in the sun can be no more than one and a half to two hours a day.


- Infants should not be left in the sun.


- Taking certain medications increases the sensitivity of the skin. Before you leave, consult with your physician. - Clothes are not fully protects the skin from the sun: cotton skips 6% of the sun's rays, in the wet - to 20%.


- Even under water at a depth of half a meter, the skin absorbs 60% of the radiation. Bathing should be included during sun exposure.


- Day-to-day increase dose by no more than 20%.


- Use sunscreen cosmetics: at the beginning of the release rate should be the maximum, about 40 units.


- Do not use on the beach decorative cosmetics, deodorants and perfumes - they can provoke the appearance of age spots on the skin.
