Cancer :
Signs and Symptoms
Lump formation is the most common sign that remains
for a long period of time. An asymptomatic nodule may be
present before other signs and symptoms appear. Breast pain
or mastodynia or pain in the lump is another symptom
of breast cancer in its early stages. Signs of inflammation
like pain, warmth, redness and swelling can then occur if
small lymph vessels in the skin and lymphatic vessels are
invaded by abnormal tissues. The skin can have an orange
peel texture also referred to as peau d’orange.
The lump may be present in the breast or at the underarm.
The breast may change in appearance as well by thickening
or increasing in size and shape. The skin of the breast
may appear pitted or form ridges. The nipples may turn inward,
turn red or scale or have abnormal discharges. As metastasis
continues to other areas of the body, manifestations like
fever, chills, bone and joint pain, jaundice, neurological
symptoms and pleural effusion are also noticeable. The drawback
is that early signs and symptoms of breast
cancer may not be present so women should exert
extra effort to diagnose by doing self-breast examination
and having thorough a breast exam annually.
