Top 7 Signs of Breast Cancer:

Breast cancer can present itself in many different ways through a variety of symptoms. For example, you may find a suspicious lump that sticks out from the rest of the breast tissue, but the lump is soft instead of hard or rounded instead of irregularly sized, or even painful. These cases may also be signs of breast cancer and should not be ignored simply because they do not fit the “hard, irregular-shaped, and painless” description. Here are some additional symptoms that may indicate beginning signs of breast cancer:

1.Swollen lymph nodes under the arm or around the collarbone,
-Breast tissue covers the area under the arms and into the collarbone, and sometimes breast cancer can spread to the lymph nodes in these areas before the original breast tumor is even large enough to be felt.

2.Swelling of all or part of the breast,
– Even if you feel no distinct mass or lump, if you notice that any part of your breast is experiencing swelling, then it may be breast cancer.

3.Skin irritation or dimpling,
-This irritation and dimpling is sometimes referred to as looking like an orange peel would.

4.Breast or nipple pain.

5.Nipple retraction,
-You may feel like your breast skin is being pulled inward, and you may notice that your nipple is actually pulling inward too.

 
6.Redness, scaliness, or thickening of the nipple or breast skin.

7.Nipple discharge,
-The discharge can include anything other than breast milk, and usually occurs without the breast being squeezed, or only on one breast.[1]
