So if we want to keep our skin healthy vitamin d. Deficiency should be avoided but in places like germany its widespread professor forked and his fellow researchers are alarmed at figures showing this only 40 percent of the population have it in sufficient concentrations in these parts of the world the sun only rises high enough in the summer to stimulate for to mindy production. Only high fat salt water fish can supply significant quantities of the vital substance and even then not enough to cover our daily requirements as the doctors themselves know supplements a one way out of the dial but simply popping pills is not enough the skin has to play its own part which is why regular moderate sunshine is the best option.

I like it too and i like to be ill try and give the advice to all patients to go i type. But to use some protect not to get a sunburn as a democrat many of your patients come to you because they think there are some spots on this skin and they may be dangerous so many of those spots are dangerous every night and most of the spots as you said nothing but the few that are dangerous. Both you have to watch so the fear for cancer is rectified. Bianco luck wouldnt dream of going out without 1st applying some screen to every part of her body thats not covered up but she wasnt always so careful as a child she often played outside and back then no one bothered much with sunscreen when its also going on and we go off to the beach on our bikes and when we came home in the evening we do usually have a bit of a sunburn on my me on my release days im much more careful and my father has skin cancer on. Top. Bianco lux skin shows visible signs of sun damage now 49. 00 shes had several cancerous growth removed including one on her temple. She 1st noticed a suspicious red saw 3 years ago that. At 1st i thought it was a pimple i picked is a bit not quite some point but it got bigger. Then i stopped formed and started to believe they arent bad thing is on and thats when the alarm bells started ringing. Alarm the night light hold basal cell carcinomas a very Common People tend to wait too long before they see a doctor and then they need relatively serious surgery course for the parts and. What younger lot thought was a pimple was in fact a basal cell carcinoma all thats left of it today is a small scar. B. C. C. As can develop anywhere on the body but that most common on parts of the body could get most exposure to the sun the head neck hands and arms. Basal cell cancer is the most common type of skin cancer. It grows slowly and is unlikely to metastasize. But a basal cell carcinoma can become quite big easily doubling in size within a year. The bigger it is the more skin surrounding it will have to be removed to remove a one centimeter tumor the doctor will also have to remove at least half a centimeter of skin around it so a bit of scarring is inevitable. When about 40 if the cancer is already advanced the tumour can grow into cartilage sometimes into muscles nerves or even bones then we have to remove part of the nose or the ear or which is extremely unfortunate for the patient. To sit for 2 or 4 younger like makes an appointment straight away for her next regular checkup she sees a dermatologist here at least every 6 months behaved opportunity percent of patients with a basal cell carcinoma will get another one within 3 years in that respect its like a chronic condition patients have to keep coming back. But everybody has what might be termed a personal sun exposure account over the course of a lifetime thats a maximum safe amount of ultraviolet exposure how much depends on what kind of skin one has every minute in the sun every sunburn tops up the account at some point the skin cells can take it anymore and skin cancer can result. From good water also it can take 20 to 30 years for skin to turn cancerous and a large number of hits that is exposure to sun. Yet or dont come in these and then the entire surface has been subjected to ultraviolet rays. And the patient cant undo it its made to work doing it can. Tonnage has a cell skin cancer its more dangerous than basal cell carcinoma because it can metastasize. She too has to go to her dermatologist for regular checkups. To mention now many people run around for years with changes to their skin that are precursors to nonmelanoma skin cancer or may even themselves be cancerous by somehow clips. A cell carcinoma develops in the square must be feeling on layer of the skin. First theyre often precancerous changes which can then become malignant. Suspicious looking patches of skin should be checked by a dermatologist as soon as possible. Treated square masel carcinoma can grow inward into the body and if it does metastasize it tends to affect the lymph nodes. Tonnage has had more than 20 carcinomas and suspicious patches of skin removed shes having another one removed today this time on her back. After the operation the tissue removed will be sent to a lab to establish if the cells are cancerous or not. Regular skin checks dont take long but they can be life saving. Skin cancer is one of the most common types of cancer. Skin cancer if we have more and more over the last 10 years in germany up to 30 percent and whos particularly at risk well a little bit it depends on the color of your skin when you have cast skin red light. Skin you have more at risk than you have when you have doc asking what are the 1st warning signs you should go to see a doctor when you have only needed one. Its and they dont have a different color and sometimes think oh its just the needle him that does not heal and so whenever youre not sure if its ok or not after 234 weeks at least show this to someone who can tell you that in such short time they dont have time to or 3 weeks you know when you know enough to get this little spot should have healed and it did not then show it to someone who can tell you its ok or its not ok and what is the difference between this cancer and melanoma. Well 1st the color of the melanoma is usually dark brown sometimes even black and the normal that you must get cancer has different colors very often wide like the color just given that you have and when youre in the growing of these nonmelanoma skin cancer usually the most of them dont grow that past and they are not that aggressive at the mill and nobodys very aggressive yet its very dangerous when you see on the regular day like today in germany more people died because of melanoma than come have injuries or death people on the streets but why is that what makes the 1000000 moments so dangerous. Because this tells they can go anywhere in your body they can go wherever they want to like in your brain. There can be mew melanomas and that is worked in the end kills you not that spot on the skin what kind of therapies do you offer in both kinds of cancer well for both kinds we have the golden rule that you find that in the early and you treat them the better. Bought over the last years you can treat them even when youre kind of late but still the best. The way for both types of skin cancer is that you have to protect them too to. Find them and treat them so you said its very dangerous if the detection of the 1000000 is very late so what is late skipping this 3 weeks before seeing a doctor or is it more like half a year well we cannot tell you that exactly it depends how deep in your skin that milano magos and the deep it goes the more risk is that the test is this in your body body somewhere and this would have to this that that is that what possibly can kill you so its a very good idea to see your doctor into damage just on a regular basis to get yourself checked. And to make that to not only the democrats are just have to have an eye on this any kind of doctor that ceased your skin should be careful and you yourself as a patient for decaf or when you see something youre not sure of peace told this to someone who knows what it is so hoffman should you go see a doctor and regular basis well usually in germany we can see the patients every 2nd here about patients with high risk like fastin and a lot of spots you see them on a yearly basis and even if you need the praxis now i would tell you please come again as soon as necessary when you see new spots and something is not clear you can show up in 3 months ago many people think that they can protect their skin using sunscreen but when it comes to sunscreen its not that easy. On the right sunscreen looks like on the skin a cd through u. V. Camera. To block layer of paste feathers it really is known permeable as it looks. Weve come to a shortcut Swimming Pool to count up to sun screen test how much attention does it give us. Dermatologist youre going to joins us here. Live guinea pigs party and then julian. Our expert has some sunscreen with Sun Protection factor 50 ready for them its supposed to be water resistant. S. P. F. 50 means that it takes 50 times longer to burn the skin when the sunscreen has been applied than it would without it but julians made his 1st mistake. And you can see that he hasnt applied the sunscreen very well around the lips the nose the ears eyes and forehead. And those are the places where we damage tala gests tend to find skin cancer most often out of. Our expert also explains that in an julian havent used enough some screen theyve used a tablespoon each in fact the recommended amount is 3 tablespoons. But are they at least protected as long as theyre supposed to be. Even after splashing around in the water for 20 minutes. Sunscreen is sold as water resistant what exactly does that mean. Over the expert. In it so i dont think your sunscreen is allowed to be sold as water resistant if it retains at least half of its Sun Protection factor after youve been in water although of course it depends how much youve been in the water if you showered afterwards and how vigorously you dried yourself with a towel so you shouldnt assume your sunscreen is waterproof you should always reapply it. So in order to ensure Sun Protection factor 50 all day long you need to apply a glassful. Of sunscreen over the course of the day. No one does that if you apply that much sunscreen and one day you look like a braided schnitzel strung. Sunscreens can only provide a degree of protection against skin cancer thats due to the different wavelengths of the ultraviolet radiation of sunlight which is divided into uva and u. V. B. They also known same for indeed if you use sunscreen youll have less sun burn because sunscreen protects pretty well against ultraviolet b. But relatively poorly against ultraviolet a and its uva that increases the risk of malignant melanoma this least equal 4 spots and how its. Sunscreen alone doesnt offer 100 percent protection against skin damage and skin cancer its best not to spend too long in the sun but the all wearing sunscreen or not. Our topic today has attracted a lot of viewer questions and i will now have the most important ones and the most popular ones and you can get some protection in the form of cream or spray or lotion and there are a chemical food has a physical filters so which one do you recommend. In the end its not that important which one you truth its important that you use one and youth one that you like and one that has enough Sun Protection and that you cover all the places of your skin that you bring in the sun. How important is some protection for children even more important then for the grown ups we know this from databases from australia we have to protect the children and we do it now around the world sunburns that you have in your childhood that make skin cancer later on. And when you grow up with that piece keep with it and even if you hold its nice protect your skin that some men that nor was tom the nonmelanoma skin cancer dont have a great chance to appear on your skin theres a german saying that says just skin never forgets so whats that about well we said this to our patients in the past and the more sunlight you get over your lifetime the high is your risk but this is because you have to think even when you lets say over 70 over 80 even over 90 piece protect your skin when you go out in the side when you go out in the garden its better to have some protection because of early forms of this nonmelanoma skin cancer can even go back so peace use protection next christian some protection does not only consist of creeds so what else is important. For example we sit here in the sun all day long this is not a good idea so we if you sit here longer go in the shade and use long sleeves and use the head and. Dont be in the direct sun and on myth of the day diagram a new piece go inside if possible another very interesting christian lycopene like in tomatoes and carrots and they supposed to protect your skin from the inside so this is a very reliable method to protect the skin to be clear with that we dont have a very good data base for this so we cannot tell to the people at least in the use one kilo off tomatoes and 2 carrots and then you are protected we dont have that and we can not give this as a good advice thanks so much for christians. Yes this is how it works here in good shape the presenter sits in the sun and is relaxing and you have told me you have to do all the work and send us all your questions. On an upcoming show well be looking at the personality disorders ranging from borderline to narcissistic how are they diagnosed what are the symptoms and how can they be treated your question still in good shape it did help you dot com the key word just personality disorders we look forward to hearing from you. You can protect your body using sunscreen except in one place your eyes but theres something that could help. Shades and you should really use them because they can protect your eyes from serious diseases caused by ultraviolet rays from. From cataracts and even Macular Degeneration but how to find the right time glasses this is what im going to find out now. And im with let up he has a better life signs in tama tree and he works at a brilliant in berlin thanks for having me so what about this years fashion trends of sunglasses and i the top of the list i think youre going to have more next year. But you have to know everything thats nice what you like but its not all about fashion its more about function and sort of what we have to look out for the same dress you have to look for the right protection against also sun rays and also very important against your ultraviolet rays so you can look. And see on some of the frames a little decoder you can read you will be 400 also you can check it so you can check this of course yeah you do it so he can take it to you yeah and you can see this little u. V. Here and then we make a board like this you can see yes you got a nice altro violet. Well yes so its good yes so what else do you have to look out for and i think the size of the lenses as an important thing because you need the. Lenses to help protect against the sun and also the colors are very important here there are different kind of colors like like yellow brownish or black so which is the best there are 3 colors gray brow and and green which is a best because you will see everything was the most clear and i said color some like yellow a little bit different but orders so youve got different models. Which is the best. Next to mine in the heart i think this could be a very nice one if you ask me its a little better but it depends on what this is about but why is this one a good one because its a little bit larger also you have more plants in front of your eyes and also those hind sight on the temples a little bit sick and so you have more protests so the side are huge you see when you know this is bigger so just how is that getting directly into your eye and this is also one of the newest frames have you saw this is absolutely up to date ok and the other one so its a nice one its what most people called and classic on john mccain its a classic model yes makes us for us think 40 years ok and its a good 1st time to us you know perfect and then what about the glare of the lenses is it important that tried to get rid of the plant from this. Yes you have to do a bit of doc lenses you have to have doc lenses and you need also and on to flex and cold on the back side right why on the back side i mean the big that is the one im looking through it yes so this is only you need to under flex and called on this one because you look through the lenses and when you got light and youre back on the sun and you do not have these under affliction coating you will have reflects on the back side of the lenses and you only sees a fraction also the you erase will be reflected and got can go inside your eyes and theres a good under flexing called it wouldnt happen so it would be much nicer for us thanks so much for this talk he says it not only for the talk but also for the show so see you next time and until then lets all be in good shape.
