Experts review the causes of melanoma for everyone

Melanoma is becoming more and more common, and there are many reasons for its occurrence. Many people want to know the causes of melanoma. I hope the following experts’ introduction can help everyone. Let everyone know more about the causes of melanoma .

(1) Air pollution: Large amounts of harmful substances such as Freon are emitted, which damage the ozone layer and cause insufficient UV filtration. Harmful UV rays and harmful substances in the air work together to act on human skin, causing abnormal expression of melanocytes and triggering melanoma. This is the cause of melanoma.

(2) The desire for beauty is at work. The cause of melanoma is that many people use a large amount of chemical cosmetics in pursuit of clean and tender skin, causing chemical skin pollution. Some people even use chemical corrosives to remove moles on the skin, but the result is counterproductive and stimulates the excessive proliferation of melanocytes.

(3) Lack of health knowledge: Not paying enough attention to moles on the feet, perineum and other areas that are prone to friction. Due to long-term compression and friction, they eventually undergo malignant transformation.

(4) Abuse of estrogen drugs. Studies have found that there are estrogen receptors in the cells of malignant melanoma. Therefore, people suspect that excessive estrogen will stimulate the occurrence of melanoma, which is also the cause of melanoma.

(5) Immunodeficiency With the improvement of living standards, the life expectancy of Chinese people has been significantly extended. As people age, their immune function gradually declines. Studies have found that low immune function is one of the causes of melanoma, so the incidence of melanoma in the elderly is very high.

(6) Benign melanin plaques are moles, of which junctional moles are most likely to become malignant, mixed moles are less likely, and endothelial moles rarely become malignant. However, most scalp melanomas are not transformed from moles, so some people believe that this disease is not entirely related to moles.

(7) The incidence rate among white people is higher than that among people of color. For example, the annual incidence rate among white people in the United States is as high as 42/100,000, while that among black people is only 0.8/100,000.

To sum up, this is a simple analysis of the causes of melanoma by experts. After reading the above introduction, everyone should have a better understanding of the causes of melanoma. I hope everyone can pay more attention to it in life.
