Question: Can you get skin cancer on parts of the body that don't have sun exposure!?
Answers:
Absolutely yes!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes you can!. I have seen people at the cancer ward with cancer developing in moles that are behind the leg and never were exposed to sun!. In some cases also on the top of a foot yet the person always wore shoes!. Most skin cancers usually occur on the left side of your body because when you drive that is where sun rays hit you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

of course you can!. In fact skin cancer is not only caused by exposure to the sun!. there ave been cases where cancer has developed on the skin due to tanning beds because of the uv rays!. as far as parts of the body that dont have sun exposure!. if you are out in the sun and believe that you cannot get skin cancer say in your underarms or crotch area (below your anus) they it is still possible!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

"Cumulative sun exposure causes mainly basal cell and squamous cell skin cancer, while episodes of severe sunburns, usually before age 18, can cause melanoma later in life!. Other less common causes are repeated X-ray exposure, scars from burns or disease and occupational exposure to certain chemicals"


There are three main types of skin cancer: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma!.

Malignant melanoma is predominantly a disease of the skin, but may in rare instances occur at other sites, including the mucous membranes (vulva, vagina, lip, throat, esophagus and perianal region), as well as in the eye (uvea and retina)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, it is possible!. im pretty sure only 90% of non-melanoma skin cancers are from the ultra violet light anyway!. Once you have a cancer, it can be difficult to figure out why you have it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can get cancer anywhere!. But not your hair and finger and toe nails!.

So you can get skin cancer even if the part of your skin isn't exposed to the skin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, your skin is made of cells and any cell any where in a on the body can become cancerous!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
