9. Examine Yourself Monthly
Paying close attention to your own body is the first step to better health, especially when it comes to your skin. Get in the habit of checking your body from head to toe at least once every month: look for new moles, changes to your existing moles, and patches of unusual color or texture. Studies suggest that thousands of melanoma cases could be found and treated before becoming fatal if more people took the time to perform monthly self-checks. Since cancerous growths can hide in places you wouldn’t think to look, it can be very helpful to have a partner help look for suspicious changes.
