Description: The 32-year-old, who boasts 19 million Twitch followers, shared his diagnosis in a post on X on Tuesday. “I’m still in a bit of shock but want to keep you all updated,” he said in the post.<br/>His dermatologist determined Blevins had melanoma after removing a mole on the bottom of his foot during a routine skin check.<br/><br/>“They are optimistic that we caught it in the early stages,” Blevins wrote in the post.<br/><br/>He added that doctors also biopsied a second dark spot near the initial mole and removed a large area around the melanoma to determine whether they had successfully gotten all the cancerous tissue.<br/><br/>“I’m grateful to have hope in finding this early, but please take this as a PSA to get skin checkups,” Blevins said in the post.<br/><br/>“I wanted to use my platform to shine light on the importance of routine skin checkups,” Blevins and his wife, Jessica Blevins, said in a statement . “We are feeling extremely optimistic and will keep everyone posted as we chat more with our doctors.”<br/><br/>Blevins’ post follows a recent spate of prominent cancer diagnoses in people younger than 50, a concerning trend that is emerging globally.<br/><br/>No one knows exactly what is driving the trend, but researchers hypothesize that changes in the types of risk factors people are exposed to increases the risk for cancer at a younger age. Smoking, alcohol consumption, air pollution, obesity, a lack of physical activity and a diet with few fruits and vegetables are key risk factors for cancer, according to the World Health Organization.<br/>visit - https://bit.ly/49cHYBd
