People who have skin cancer how much do they sunbathe their skin type and color?
People with light skin to medium toned skin that sunbathe a lot for hours at a time and for several or more days during the month are increasing their chances to skin cancer. Now, people who have been diagnosed with skin cancer shouldn't sunbathe at all and if they do they should play it safely by wearing sunblock. The people who have had skin cancer have a 50% chance of developing skin cancer again. Mostly, it is caused by sun damange, but sometimes it could be genetics (i.e. atypical nevus, which is a skin condition where the moles on one's skin aren't normal and have a better chance of developing into cancer). I am a skin cancer survivor who never sunbathes and if I do go to the beach, I cover myself in SPF 30 at least.
