Understanding Poroma: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

Poroma is a type of skin cancer that develops in the cells of the skin's outer layer. It is also known as a squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and it can appear on any sun-exposed area of the body, including the face, ears, lips, hands, and arms.

Poroma is caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or tanning beds, which damages the DNA in the skin cells. This damage can lead to mutations that cause the cells to grow and multiply uncontrollably, forming a tumor.

Poroma can be treated with surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy, depending on the size and location of the tumor. Early detection and treatment are important to prevent the cancer from spreading and to improve outcomes.

It is important to protect your skin from UV radiation by using sunscreen, wearing protective clothing, and seeking shade when the sun is strongest. Early detection and treatment of poroma can help to improve outcomes and reduce the risk of complications.
