Here are some important warning signs of breast cancer.

01:02 Lump in the Breast or Armpit.
02:05 Red or Swollen Breasts.
03:09 Nipple Discharge.
04:07 Pain in the Breast or Chest Area.
05:06 Changes in Breast Appearance.
06:03 Nipples Become Sensitive.
07:02 Itching on the Breasts.
08:01 Pain in the Upper Back, Shoulder and Neck.

Feeling a lump in your breast or armpit may be the first warning sign of breast cancer. Such lumps are often hard and painless, though some may be painful. A lump under the armpit may feel hard or thick and dense as compared with the armpit on the other side.
Do not panic when you notice a lump, as it is not always cancerous. A few common causes of breast lumps are hormonal changes in the body, a breast infection and fat necrosis (damaged tissue).
It is important to have your doctor check out any new or suspicious lumps on your breasts to determine the cause.

When breasts hurt, most women think it is due to premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and when breasts feel hot or appear red, they usually suspect an infection. Swollen breasts with soreness or redness might even be a sign of breast cancer.
A tumor located underneath a breast can push on tissues, making the breast swollen and sore. In some cases, the swelling is more prominent under the arm or under the collarbone.
If you have this symptom for more than a week, be sure to see a doctor.

Discharge from your nipple without any squeezing or touching of the breast may make any women wonder. Other than breast milk, any kind of nipple discharge can be a warning sign of breast cancer.
When a tumor starts in the milk ducts just under or around the nipple, it may cause irritation and infection, leading to discharge.
If you notice any nipple discharge, particularly clear or bloody, get it checked by your doctor. Such discharge can also be due to an infection or other condition that needs treatment.

If you have an ache, sharp stab or pain in the breast or chest area, it is not a good sign. Sharp pain that comes and goes or a mild electric sensation that you may experience from one breast to another may be a sign of breast cancer.
A tumor located directly behind the nipple or in one of the milk ducts often causes pain and discomfort in the breast.
Though not necessarily a warning sign of cancer, pain in the breast or chest area can be due to other serious health issues that may need treatment. At times, breast pain can be due to hormonal changes in the body, birth control pills, poorly fitting bras and stress.

Any change in the shape or size of your breasts is a matter of concern. You also need to keep a close eye on dimpling, shrinkage and recent asymmetry of the breasts.
Deep tissue growth in the breasts may affect their shape or size, leading to physical changes.
As these changes are more about appearance than feel, you might become aware of such changes while looking at yourself in a mirror.


Well, If you experience any of the following 7 Common Signs of breast cancer that I mentioned above, you should not ignore it.
It’s important to tell your health care provider to have them checked by your doctor.
So that the cause can be found and treated, if needed.
Being proactive can lead to earlier treatment and a better outlook.
