The Local Spain
Skin cancer numbers in Spain have increased by 40 percent in the last four years.
Skin cancer rates have been rising in Spain over the last few years due to intense UV levels, sunny weather and outdoor lifestyles.
Risk factors for skin cancer include having fair skin, childhood sunburns, and tanning beds, as well as several others like sunbathing without any protection.
Spain doesn't have a nationwide skin cancer screening program, which means that it's up to you to monitor yourself and do self-checks.
AdvertisementThe main types of treatments for skin cancer used in Spain are surgical, immunotherapy and radiotherapy or a combination of them.
