The dangers of not wearing sunscreen
Not wearing sunscreen can increase your risk of developing skin damage, skin cancer, and other health problems.
Sunburn
Without sunscreen, your skin is more susceptible to sunburn, which can cause redness, pain, and peeling.
Treating a sunburn promptly and properly can help alleviate discomfort and promote healing. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to treat a sunburn effectively:
Skin Cancer
Prolonged exposure to UV radiation from the sun can increase your risk of developing skin cancer, including the most dangerous type of skin cancer, melanoma.
Premature Aging
Exposure to the sun can cause premature aging, including wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots.
Eye Damage
UV radiation from the sun can also damage your eyes and increase your risk of cataracts and other eye problems.
Weakened Immune System
UV radiation can weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to infections and other health problems.
