Sunburn is a visible reaction that appears on your skin caused by the UV radiation, at times it could cause invisible damage to your skin which can lead to skin cancer, which is the most common type of cancer in the US.
Most children spend a long part of their day playing games, and sports outside during summer. Children who have fair skin, moles, freckles or a family history or skin cancer are more likely to develop skin cancer later in the years.
The following are the most common symptoms of sunburn. However each child may have different experiences. Symptoms may include:
• redness• swelling of the skin• pain• blisters• fever• chills• weakness• dry, itching, and peeling skin days after the burn
UV rays are strongest during summer months when the sun is directly overhead (normally between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.).

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) arises from the cells at the bottom (or basal) part of the outer layer of the skin.
Basal Cell Carcinoma:• is the most common and least dangerous form of skin
cancer• is red, pale or a pearly type of colour• grows slowly• may become ulcerated as it grows• appears on skin most often exposed to ultraviolet
radiation (UVR) - the head, neck, forearms and upper body• is usually able to be treated if detected early• In 2002, 96 per cent of people with Basal Cell Carcinoma
were aged 40 years or older1
• 296,000 new cases of Basal Cell Carcinoma were estimated to have been diagnosed in 20082

Melanoma is a dangerous type of skin cancer that starts off in the melanocytes. Melanocytes are skin cells that produce melanin, the pigment that gives the skin it’s colour. The more time people spend in the sunlight, the more melanocytes make melanin and cause the skin to tan. But if the skin receives too much UV light, then the melanocytes may start to grow strangely and may then become cancerous. Tis condition the forms Melanoma.
