To successfully treat and prevent recurrence of squamous cell skin cancer we need to understand and — if possible — remove the underlying causes and risk factors. We need to ask: "What else is going on inside the body that might allow squamous cell skin cancer to develop?"
Accurate diagnosis of the factors behind squamous cell skin cancer consists of three steps:
Cause | Probability | Status |
---|---|---|
Cigarette Smoke Damage | 99% | Confirm |
Low DHEA | 58% | Possible |
Have you suffered from Squamous Cell Carcinoma (a skin cancer)?
Possible responses:
→ No / don't know→ Yes but now resolved for over 5 years → Yes but now resolved for under 5 years → Current problem but containable → Current problem and aggressive/spreading |
Smoking is a risk factor for non-melanoma skin cancer.
