Sometimes there are no symptoms of breast cancer when it is in the early stages. If you notice a lump, or are experiencing anything unusual, you must report the symptoms to your doctor as soon as possible. Performing a monthly self breast exam is the best way to notice any changes in your breasts.

Answer 2

Symptoms of Breast Cancer

Early breast cancer usually does not cause pain, and when breast cancer first develops, there may be no symptoms at all. As the cancer grows, it can cause changes that women should watch for:

A lump or thickening in or near the breast or in the underarm area
A change in the size or shape of the breast
Nipple discharge or tenderness, or the nipple pulled back (inverted) into the breast
Ridges or pitting of the breast (the skin looks like the skin of an orange); or
A change in the way the skin of the breast, areola, or nipple looks or feels (for example, warm, swollen, red, or scaly).
Any symptoms such as those listed should be reported to a doctor. Most often, they are not cancer, but it’s important to check with the doctor so that any problems can be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.
