Will writing on the skin (i.e. markers) cause skin cancer?


I get worried sometimes when I get bored and doodle on my hands. I heard somewhere that it will cause skin cancer because of the chemicals in the markers. Is that true?

i was always told wen i was younger you got ink poisioning from it but i dont see how unless you have a wound......you should be FINE!

I haven't gotten anything yet.

I actually used to write everywhere on my arms & legs. I even inked my whole left palm because I was bored.

Well, just about everything causes cancer...

Yeah I've heard that too. But I believe it's very unlikely that you will get skin cancer, unless you constantly write on your skin and write all over. That's just my opinion.

no
