and so, we want to take this opportunity to talk about our boobies!

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. Early detection can significantly improve treatment outcomes, so it's important to know the key symptoms. Even if you know all this, read on. You might learn something new. Common signs include a lump in the breast or underarm, changes in breast size or shape, dimpling or puckering of the skin, nipple discharge (other than breast milk), and persistent breast pain. You may also notice swelling, redness, or thickening of the breast skin. Don't ignore these symptoms, even if you feel embarrassed.
If you experience any of these symptoms, there's no need to panic. Not all breast changes indicate cancer, but it's crucial to see a healthcare professional for an evaluation as soon as possible. Remember, the doctor has seen lots of boobs before! Don't be shy. They may recommend a mammogram, ultrasound, or biopsy to determine if cancer is present.
If diagnosed early, breast cancer treatments can be very effective. Your doctor will help you choose the best treatment option based on your individual case. And we at Cancer Care Jávea are happy to hold your hand throughout this process.
