Breast Cancer- early symptoms

Breast cancer usually starts as a small, painless lump(s) in the breasts, and will later metastasize into the rest of the body. Diagnosing breast cancer quickly increases the survival rate considerably. Breast cancer is mostly common in women over the age of 50, but it can appear in any woman of any age. It is also possible for men to contract, but these cases are very rare.
 
Abnormal lumps or swelling of the breasts
The most common symptoms of breast cancer are the appearance of lumps, swellings or endema. They may not be painful, but should be looked at by a doctor nonetheless.
 
Inflammation, lumps and dimples on the breasts
Visible changes such as inflammation, bumps or dimples on the breasts could be indicative of cancer. Even if you think that the symptoms are barely noticeable, don’t ignore them – if it truly is breast cancer, early discovery can save your life.
 
Nipples: change in location / inflammation / secretions
If the skin of your nipple changes texture or becomes brittle, if it becomes inflamed, swollen, its shape changes and its location does as well (flattening or sinking of the nipple), or secretions occur - these are all common indicators of breast cancer. If the symptoms don’t disappear after a while, consult with your physician.
 
Other symptoms:
Chronic pain in the breasts or armpits
Uneven, inflamed blood vessels
Swelling of the armpits or the collar bone
Sores on the breasts
