Check Your Breasts; Here Are The Common Symptoms Of Breast Cancer
While many people look out for lumps on their breasts to tell if they have cancer or not, there are also other telltale signs that indicate a chance of cancer. These other signs include:
Lump and swelling
The most common way of identifying cancer on breasts is the presence of lumps that can be felt through touch. Lumps are unusual swellings, bumps or bulges that feel different from the rest of the breast tissue. Cancerous lumps are usually hard, firm and with irregular shapes and become painful if they increase in size. Although not all breast lumps are cancerous, it is important to seek medical attention when you spot one.

Skin sores
These occur when breast cancer is advanced and is built up to a point of breaking. Skin sores are as a result of a lump that has grown to a large size, forcing the skin to break to an open wound. Sores are painful and often accompanied by a foul smell and constant leakage.
