Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are the most common types of skin cancer?
The most common types of skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma.
-
What causes skin and soft tissue cancers?
Skin cancer is often linked to sun exposure and UV rays. Soft tissue sarcomas may be linked to genetic factors, prior radiation, or unknown causes.
-
Who is more at risk for developing skin and soft tissue cancer?
The risk is higher for people with a lot of sun exposure, fair skin, a history of radiation, certain genetic conditions, or weakened immune systems.
-
What are the warning signs of skin cancer?
Common signs include new or changing spots on the skin, sores that do not heal, or unusual growths.
-
What are all the treatment options for skin and soft tissue cancer?
Treatment may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy.
-
Can tanning beds cause skin cancer?
Yes. Because tanning beds use ultraviolet (UV) radiation like the sun emits, they can damage the DNA in skin cells. This exposure can lead to cancer over time, specifically basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma.
-
Can skin and soft tissue cancer return after treatment?
Yes, some cancers can return after treatment, which is why follow-up care is important.
-
Can skin cancer be prevented?
No cancer is 100% preventable, but you can lower your risk of skin cancer by protecting your skin from UV radiation from the sun, limiting sun exposure, and avoiding tanning beds.
