Skin Cancer Awareness Month by Karen Salkin
Since we at ClearClub care about not just your dental health, but your overall health, let me tell you that two days from now, May 1, Skin Cancer Awareness Month begins. So let's all honor it by scheduling our annual skin checks right away.
Doing that is so important! And it's one of the easiest medical things you can do for yourself. You just go to the dermatologist, and he or she looks over all your skin. (With your underwear on, of course. So rock the good stuff that day!) If there’s something you’re worried about, just point it out, because you know your own body better than anyone else! (Make sure they even check your scalp!)

Stick Up For Yourself Where Your Health Is Concerned by Karen Salkin
This is one of the most important health lessons that you will ever learn—you have to be the one person to stick up for your own health! No one else will do it for you.
If you really feel that something is amiss, because we each know our own body better than anyone, insist that your doctors and dentists investigate further, or keep looking until you find someone who will.
