Summary about Actinic Keratosis in English

Actinic keratosis (AK) is a skin disease characterized by rough, scaly patches of skin. Solar keratosis is another name for AK. It is a form of precancer, which indicates that it may progress to cancer if it is not treated. Without treatments, AK can evolve into squamous cell carcinoma, which is a kind of skin cancer.

Symptoms of Actinic Keratosis

The early symptoms of actinic keratosis are:

  • Rough and raised lumps on the skin
  • Lumps with yellow or brown crust on top
  • Bumps of red, gray, pink, or skin color

Some other symptoms can be:

  • Bleeding
  • Itching, stinging or burning
  • Lips with dry, scaly skin
  • Skin growths that resemble animal horns and protrude from the skin
  • Tenderness or pain

Causes of Actinic Keratosis

Actinic keratoses are caused as a result of abnormal skin cell development due to:

  • DNA damage by short-wavelength UVB
  • Poor immune function
  • Aging
  • Predisposing disease
  • Certain drugs

Treatment

The treatments for AK might include:

  • Medications 
  • Cryotherapy
  • Scraping 
  • Laser therapy
  • Photodynamic therapy

Preventive Measures of Actinic Keratosis

You take the following preventive measures to protect yourself from AK:

  • Limit your exposure to the sun and avoid spending time in the sun between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
  • You must protect your skin by applying a sunscreen with at least an SPF of 30 even when it is cloudy.
  • Wear tightly woven clothing that covers your arms and legs for additional solar protection.
