Experts explain the key points of breast cancer prevention

The incidence of breast cancer is very high, especially in middle-aged women. The disease and family heredity also have a certain impact. So what are the preventive measures for breast cancer ? The following is a detailed answer from relevant experts.

1. Breast mass: It is the most common sign of breast cancer, and more than 80% of breast cancer patients come to the hospital for treatment. This type of mass is different from breast hyperplasia mass. It is often single, irregular in shape, relatively hard in texture, not very mobile, mostly painless, and has little to do with the menstrual cycle. In order not to miss the opportunity for early diagnosis, any painless breast mass should be regarded as an early sign of breast cancer and go to the hospital immediately for treatment.

2. Nipple eczema: The skin epidermis of the nipple or areola desquamates and erodes, presenting eczema-like lesions. In addition, the lesions are mostly painless and itchy, and take a long time to heal.

3. Nipple discharge: Non-breastfeeding women should be alert if they suddenly find milky, watery, purulent, or bloody discharge from one nipple, especially if there is bloody discharge. More than 60% of women over 50 years old who find bloody discharge from their nipples are breast cancer patients.

4. Nipple retraction: Breast cancer occurring in the central area can cause nipple retraction, displacement or fixation. If bilateral nipple asymmetry is found, it should be checked in time. This is one of the key points in breast cancer prevention.
