Self-care looks different for everyone. On #InternationalSelfCareDay, Checkpoint Therapeutics encourages prioritizing personal care and sun protection. Consider implementing these tips in your daily routine: Avoid excessive sun exposure or bed tanning, as these activities can increase your risk of skin cancer. Always wear SPF skin protection when going outside for extended periods of time. Remember to treat your lips. Skin on the lips is sensitive and can be prone to sunburn if overexposed, so keep SPF lip balm with you. Check your skin regularly and contact your doctor with any concerns.
