Effective Treatment Methods For Skin Cancer
Disease
  • Skin cancer is the most common form of all
    cancers which has affected millions of people
    around the world. This is the most common form of
    melanoma which occurs in all people regardless of
    gender, race and age. When the basic unit of life
    the 'cells' start to divide in an irregular way
    then it creates a disturbance in the body and
    forms big mass called as the tumor. The tumor
    forms in the epithelial cell and creates itching,
    irritation, pain and inflammation problems in
    skin. The tumor may go to other parts of the body
    from its original location in metastatic stage
    (advance stage).

Causes of skin cancer
  • According to a research, the main cause of the
    skin cancer is over exposure to the sunlight
    (mainly ultraviolet rays). Other factors also
    cause this ailment like consumption of high dose
    of drugs, genetic factors and exposure to
    chemical elements (mainly carcinogenic).

4
Skin Cancer Treatment
  • Mohs surgery This is a very popular as well as
    an effective method for the skin cancer treatment
    in which cancerous cells are removed from the
    affected areas. This technique is useful when
    oncologist doesn't know the type, nature and the
    depth of the tumor.

5
Photodynamic therapy
  • Photodynamic therapy In this technique,
    chemical is given to the patients through
    injection. The chemicals go into the blood stream
    and are absorbed by all cells but these chemicals
    remain same in the cancerous cells. Now, laser
    beams are applied on the affected areas and
    chemicals get activated to kill the cancerous
    cells and tumor

6
Cryosurgery
  • Cryosurgery Cryosurgery is a very effective
    method for skin cancer treatment in which the
    cancerous cells are cooled at very low
    temperature (about -186 degree Celsius). When
    cells are frozen at low temperature, then liquid
    nitrogen is given to the affected parts to kill
    the malignant cells.

7
Laser technique
  • This is a latest technique for skin cancer
    treatment which is used when cancer cells don't
    reach to the inner layers of the skin. In this
    technique, laser beams are administered on the
    melanoma parts to stop the cell division of
    cancerous cells.

8
Conclusion
  • Medical science has come a long way to treat skin
    cancer disease. But more research works need to
    be done by researchers to discover latest and
    innovative healing techniques, so that patients
    can fight from this dreadful disease. Today,
    millions of people are suffering from this
    disease and seek proper diagnosis and treatment
    to lead a normal and happy life.
