Housecall for Health: Skin Cancer Leads to Other Cancers

People who survive skin cancer are more likely to have another cancer diagnosis later in life.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon reports in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

New research finds skin cancer survivors have a higher risk of getting another form of cancer.  A Harvard study analyzed data from 150,000 people over 20 years and showed women with non-melanoma skin cancers were 26% more likely to later develop another form of cancer than those without the disease.  Men showed a 15% increase.

Experts say the findings aren’t enough to change cancer screening guidelines.
