A New Lump or Thickening

A lump in the breast or underarm is one of the most common early signs of Breast cancer.

It may feel hard, painless, and irregular

Some lumps can be tender or soft too

 Not every lump is cancer, but it should always be checked by a doctor

 Changes in Breast Shape or Size

If one breast suddenly looks different in size or shape, it could be a warning sign.

Swelling or shrinkage in one breast

Visible asymmetry that wasn’t there before

 Skin Changes (Dimpling or Redness)

Watch for unusual changes in the skin, such as:

Dimpling (like orange peel texture)

Redness or irritation

Thickened skin

 Nipple Changes or Discharge

Changes in the nipple can be an early clue:

Nipple turning inward suddenly

Unusual discharge (especially bloody or clear)

Pain or itching around the nipple

 Important to Remember

These signs don’t always mean cancer, but they should never be ignored

Early detection greatly improves treatment outcomes

Regular self-checks and medical screenings are key
