Breast Cancer Symptoms
| | Early breast cancer usually does not cause pain. In fact, when it first develops, breast cancer may cause no symptoms at all. But as the cancer grows, it can cause these changes: |
| | a lump or thickening in the breast or armpit |
| | a change in the size or shape of the breast |
| | discharge from the nipple |
| | a change in the color or texture of the skin of the breast or areola (such as dimpling, puckering, or scaliness). |
| | Note: any changes in the breast should be reported to a doctor without delay. Symptoms can be caused by cancer or by a number of less serious conditions. Early diagnosis is especially important for breast cancer because the disease responds best to treatment before it has spread. The earlier breast cancer is found and treated, the better a woman's chance for complete recovery. |
