Basal Cell Carcinoma – Symptoms, Causes & Treatments

Environmental Chemicals

Another cause of basal cell carcinoma is direct exposure to environmental chemicals and harmful substances. You can face these elements on a daily basis both on the job or at home. Some especially dangerous components that you need to be careful include vinyl chloride, solvents in cleaning products and degreasers, paraffin in car manufacturing factories, tar, as well as arsenic. It is important to wear protective gear when you have to work with these chemicals. Also, have regular health checks to find out any abnormalities early. [4]
