Will my brother get skin cancer from sitting in sun for the last 30 years constantly?


I am worried about my older brother who tans in the sun all day and works at the Palm Beach County Jail at night, then hits the beach again. He really looks like my mom had an affair with Martin Luther King Jr! He is so tan, that when you look at him, your eyes start to water. Will he get cancer? He looks like he loves it so much, like it is his life! Could sitting in sun make you immune to Cancer because he's been sitting in sun for years and years with only a few things he had to remove from head like a boil or pimple. Will he eventually get that Melanoma thing if he has sat directly in the sun all day every day for the last 29 years?

yes it could happen
he needs to get reg check up from the doctor
and wear sun protection
skin cancer usally comes from years of exposure and later in life

It is very possible. If he goes to the doctor and gets tests regularly that would help. If they find it early and go ahead and take care of it he will probably be fine.

it is possible if you stay way to long in the sun like that, skin cancer isnt harmful it could get removed and never come back again unless ur in the sun again, to know if u have skin cancer is if a black mole starts to grow and starts to get bigger and bigger
