The famous doctor Yevgeny Komarovsky shared with subscribers important recommendations for the exposure of children to the sun.
Doctor Komarovsky recalled that serious sunburn, if there were more than 5 in the first 20 years of life, is a factor in the development of melanoma (skin cancer). They increase the likelihood of a fatal disease occurring by 80%.
Children receive higher doses of UV due to the ratio of skin surface area to body weight.
Therefore, sunscreens for the smallest family members must be selected with a dense texture and a high protection filter.
Apply the cream 10-15 minutes before exhaling outside, if you are walking around the city, then the cream should be renewed every 4 hours, while relaxing outside the city, outdoors or on the beach, apply a new layer of cream every 2 hours.Komarovsky also advised to teach children to check moles on their bodies for the timely diagnosis of skin diseases. Normal moles should be symmetrical, with smooth edges and a uniform color.
The diameter of dangerous moles exceeds 6 millimeters.
