Early signs of breast disease. In order for women to detect breast disease early, it is best to learn how to check their breasts for timely treatment.

Check whether the size of the breast is symmetrical. If the size is not the same, it often indicates that there is a possibility of lesions on the large side. A few people have large breasts due to hormonal disorders or enlarged breasts.

Check whether the breasts on both sides are symmetrical. If the height is not the same, look for the cause. Once "dimples" appear on the breast, skin depressions should occur. Be alert. This is often the early manifestation of breast cancer. Its formation is due to the surrounding tumors. Tissue reactive hyperplasia causes the skin to be pulled toward the tumor to form a superficial skin depression.

Examination of breast shape / Normally, the shape of bilateral breasts is symmetrical. If one side is raised or sunken, attention should be paid to the presence of lesions. A large lump in the breast often causes the breast to locally bulge. Early breast cancer near the skin can cause the skin to sag.

Examination of the nipple / The nipple of a normal breast is symmetrical on both sides. If the nipple is sunken, it is an important feature of breast cancer. It should be noted that only those who have recently had depression are of diagnostic significance. Because some people's nipple depression is a developmental defect. If bloody secretions are found in the nipple, it is often an important manifestation of papilloma in the duct.

The self-touch inspection / method is very simple. You can lie on your back with your right hand over the top of your head, so that your right breast is tiled on the chest wall. Lateral breasts, starting from the inside and from top to bottom, and then to the outside to the armpits, one by one are touched for ridges and lumps. When examining the armpit, lower your right hand. Examine the left breast in the same way. Normal breast glandular tissue can touch uniform, scattered and soft nodules. During the examination, be careful not to twist your breasts with your fingertips, or lift your breasts into your hands for examination. This will treat normal breast tissue as a breast mass. Seek medical attention in a timely manner.
