Sunburn: Greetings. A mild sunburn can lead to skin changes over time. We know that sun exposure can cause skin cancer however an isolated mild sunburn is less likely to be the sole triggering event. Wear sun screen and avoid mid day sun. If you are concerned with a particular skin lesion, have your doctor look at this spot. I hope this helps. Good Luck.
