Protect Ur Nose and ears..

My nose had been really red this summer, more that just a SunBurn and didn't go away, So I made an App with the Skin Dr.
Just got back from the DR. and I have what he called Pre-Cancer cells on it.

Have to use Fluorouracil 5% for three weeks (like chemo in a tube) to get rid of them (early detection/treatment makes a big diff). If not then it's surgery.

I always use an 80 sports sunscreen and it probably helped, but, didn't prevent.

47yrs of ridding I have burned my nose to many time he said likely caused it.

Just a heads up that someone is going to slam you for your spelling!

 

Like you're doc said, repeated burns more than likely contributed to it. I am a retired pharmacist so I know all about the fluorouracil cream, hope it works. I have been trying to be diligent in using suncreen especially on my nose since my Dad had a basal cell carcinoma on his years ago. Surgery took care of it, no recurrence.

 

I must be slipping in my old age, I did not catch that!

 

Sorry to hear about your noise. When my noise starts bothering me, I tell her to shut the f*ck up and go bake some cookies...


Sorry, couldn't resist.

 

My noise makes sure I'm all lathered up from nose to toes when I go outside.

 

yeah, you gotta be careful...lose your noise and ears and you have no place to hang your glasses!
never hear the guys that wear full face helmets complaining about sunburn/cancer on their faces do you...and yet another reason to wear atgatt.

 

make sure your sunscreen has helioplex...

 

hahahahahahahahaha

 

I used to tan in the 80s and I've had two skin cancer operations and will soon have a third because of it. Now, I use SPF 110 on my arms and neck. I don't use it on my face because I have tinted face shield. But neither my arms of face has ever burned, even after 4+ hours in the Texas summer sun. You might want to start using a higher SPF sunscreen too.
