Keep Safe in the Sun

Southwest Orlando Family Medicine, P.L.

Spring is here – it’s the time of year families head to the beach, the pool and the parks! With the perfect weather we’ve been having, it’s hard not to spend all your time outside! Going for walks, spending time in nature, and relaxing by the water are all great ways to help destress and rejuvenate. Just a reminder from your clinicians at Southwest Orlando Family Medicine, P.L. to keep sunscreen handy for you and your family when you’re out having fun in the sun! Research shows that wearing sunscreen helps to prevent sunburn and reduce your risk of skin cancer and premature aging. Dermatologists recommend using a sunscreen that offers SPF 30 or greater, broad-spectrum protection, and water resistance. You can learn more about sunscreen here.
