October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. Lump in the Breast: The most common sign of breast cancer is a lump or mass in the breast or underarm area. Changes in Breast Size or Shape: Noticeable changes in breast size or shape, such as one breast becoming larger or lower than the other, can be a red flag for breast cancer. Breast Pain: While breast pain is often associated with non-cancerous conditions, persistent, unexplained breast pain should not be ignored and should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. Nipple or Breast Sensation: Unexplained sensations like warmth, tingling, or itching in the breast or nipple can sometimes be associated with breast cancer.
