SUNSCREEN IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR FEET AS WELL!

Stay Hydrated and apply sunscreen to your feet. They can burn just as easily as any other part of your body. Don't forget them!

‌

Hey, your pets need hydration too, don't forget to provide plenty of water for them too in the hot weather!

SUNSCREEN on your feet?

OH YES!

Many people do not think about their feet when applying sunscreen, but did you know that the skin on your feet is highly susceptible to melanoma and other forms of skin cancer? The American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (ACFAS) warns that skin cancer of the foot is prevalent and can even be fatal if not caught early.
While all types of skin cancer, including squamous cell and basal cell carcinoma, can be found on the foot, the most common is the most serious form, melanoma. Symptoms can be as subtle as an abnormal-looking mole or freckle found anywhere on the foot, and often go unnoticed without routine foot exams.
The foot and ankle surgeons of ACFAS offer these tips to keep your feet safe this summer:
Lather up with sunscreen from head to toe-literally-when at the pool or beach to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun.
Check your feet and toes regularly for symptoms such as an abnormal-looking mole or freckle anywhere on the foot - even under toenails and on your soles.
Look for moles or freckles that change in size or shape. If you notice anything suspicious, promptly schedule an appointment with your foot and ankle specialist to have the mark examined.
Schedule routine exams with your foot and ankle specialist so he or she can keep track of suspicious, changing marks.
Early diagnosis is key to effective treatment for the condition. But because people aren't looking for the early warning signs or taking the same precautions they do for other areas of the body, often times skin cancer in this region is not diagnosed until later stages.
For more information on skin cancer of the foot or other foot and ankle health information, schedule a consultation with our physicians.

At Marlboro Podiatry Center our doctors will examine and check for any conditions which may be of concern, including any suspicious marks!
