Six Early Warning Signs of Breast Cancer
There are six crucial early warning signs of breast cancer that I’m going to share with you and what to do if you have breast cancer.
What is breast cancer?
Cancer occurs when mutations occur in genes that regulate cell growth cells. These mutations will trigger the division and multiplication of cells in an uncontrolled way.
Breast cancer develops in the breast cells. Cancer usually forms either in the ducts or lobules of the breast.
Lobules are milk-producing glands, while ducts are the pathways that allow milk to flow from the glands to the nipples. Cancer can also occur in the breast’s fibrous or fatty connective tissue.
These cancer cells will invade other healthy tissue in the breast and can spread to the lymph nodes under the arms. Once cancer invades the lymph nodes, it can move quickly to other body parts.
