May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, a time focused on educating the public about prevention, detection and treatment.
According to the American Cancer Society, skin cancer is the most common form of cancer, but nearly all cases can be treated effectively when found early.
Early detection is key, along with knowing what changes to look for on the skin. Health experts say regular checks and awareness of warning signs can make a significant difference in outcomes.
Dr. Abigail Cline, a dermatologist with NYC Health + Hospitals, joined Rocco Vertuccio on Sunday to discuss prevention tips, what to watch for and how New Yorkers can protect themselves.
