SPF分鐘#8 –可能需要2-3個月的時間才能在安大略省見到皮膚癌專家。
It can take up to 2-3 months before you can see a skin cancer specialist in Ontario. During the pandemic, that number has increased to 3-4 months, and sometimes can even be much longer.

SPF分鐘#5 –皮膚癌的並發症
Most non-melanoma skin cancers, like basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, are not usually deadly. However, that doesn’t mean they don’t pose their own complications of skin cancers. Since these cancers are usually present on your face, neck, and hands, they can lead to disfigurement, pain, bleeding, infections, and scaring, which in-and-of-themselves can lead to a lower quality […]
SPF分鐘#4 –紫外線曬黑設備與P有何共同之處？
UV tanning devices are very dangerous to your health. In fact, the World Health Organization includes UV tanning devices, cigarettes, and plutonium in its group 1 of cancer-causing agents. Not only that, the U.S. Skin Cancer Foundation states that more people will develop skin cancer because of indoor tanning, than they will develop lung cancer because of smoking.
SPF分鐘#3 – ABCDE關於如何檢測黑色素瘤的信息
Melanoma, while perhaps the least common form of skin cancer, is by far the deadliest due to its tendency to spread quickly to other organs and lymph nodes. Melanoma typically looks like a mole or can evolve from an already existing mole. And there are 5 distinct elements to look for in a potentially cancerous mole. Think of them as the ABCDE’s of how to detect melanoma: A – asymmetricalB – […]

How To Take Control Of Your Body: Everything You Need To Know
Practicing medicine is an inexact science. The body is a complex machine with nuanced capabilities and shortcomings. It is not a simple algorithm where X+Y=Z. Factors like lifestyle, diet, environmental considerations, and family history all add their own flavour on how a person will react to any illness. That means doctors are not only asked to practice “textbook science,” but […]
