09.01.2022 MELANOMA AWARENESS 1 Australian dies every 5 hours from melanoma (based on 2019 statistics). Melanoma is a serious form of skin cancer that can grow very quickly if left untreated. It can spread to the lower part of your skin, enter the lymphatic system or bloodstream, and then spread to other organs in the body.... The main cause of melanoma is from overexposure to UV light. The most effective way to protect yourself is to practice sun safety. Melanoma can be effectively treated if detected early. It is recommended that you have a regular skin check every 12 months, and seek advice from your GP or skin specialist if you notice new or changes to existing moles. The Melanoma Institute of Australia is a great resource for more information, and if you have any concerns, please consult your General Practitioner. https://www.melanoma.org.au/understanding-melanoma/
