cobalt 60 skin cancer

About 58 years ago I was exposed to cobalt 60 just below my knee caps.
Then approximately 15 years ago, cancer started to appear in that area. In the last
2 years I have had six operations and 3 skin grafts, one which recently has been healing
for 3 months. It appears to me that cobalt 60 may be the cause.
