cancer screening tests work by detecting polyps or by finding early stage cancers. Regular screening for and removal of polyps reduces your risk of developing colorectal cancer – by up to 90 percent with colonoscopy.

Yes, you can watch moles on your skin for any change they have and if they are light and dark both get the checked. My cousin and grandfather both have skin cancer. My cousin was 27 when she was diagnosed and my grandfather was 50, so I have an appointment to get checked next week.

I think what Bob meant was that you are aware of any unusual bumps on your skin or changes of your skin and that you know how to do this properly. Normally general knowledge on this is sufficient as well as checking yourself regularly.

I did not know you could be screened for skin cancer. How do you go about doing this? Is there a special test? Can they tell just by testing your skin before there is a problem?

Skin cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer when it's caughtearly enough. More people should get screened so they know they are cancer free. If nothing else, do it for the people you love.
