It may not be possible to avoid all skin cancers completely. Some cancerous lesions appear without an obvious reason. However, you can do much to reduce the risk of preventable skin cancers. 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention declare clearly that most skin cancers result from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun. While sunlight has health benefits, your risk of skin cancers skyrockets without protection from UV.

Your veins, tasked with returning blood to the heart and lungs, have a unique design that helps them work against gravity. Diseases of the veins can allow the pooling of blood, a condition that creates further problems, usually in your legs.

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. Melanoma is the most aggressive type, forming in skin pigment cells, such as those found in moles. While most moles are harmless, there are signs when cancer hits.
