Legătura dintre arsurile solare și un tip de cancer de piele. Consecințele pot apărea și după zeci de ani

A recent study indicates that severe sunburns significantly increase the risk of developing squamous cell carcinoma, especially when experienced during childhood. The risk escalates with the frequency of sunburns, with a notable increase for those who had multiple severe burns. The analysis, which included data from over 320,000 participants, highlights the long-term consequences of UV exposure and emphasizes the importance of sun protection. Dermatologists recommend protective measures, especially for vulnerable populations, to mitigate the risk of skin cancer.
