Summer is here, and the great outdoors are once again beckoning, and people are taking advantage of all the season has to offer. But sun damage can be problematic and many people overlook the fact that your feet are just as susceptible as other parts of your body. Because July is UV Safety Awareness Month, today Dr. Hubert Lee at CarePlus Foot & Ankle Specialists in Bellevue, WA, is sharing what you need to know to protect your feet from harmful UV rays.
Sunlight is a powerful source of UV radiation. And while there may be health benefits to getting some sun, it can also cause both skin cancer and skin damage. So, the bottom line is that there is no such thing as a safe suntan.
Most people take steps to protect other parts of their bodies from the sun, but it’s easy to forget about your feet. So today we’re sharing some tips to avoid sun damage to your feet.
