                                        Happy Halloween! Send this to a friend to remind them. 🎃🎃
Today also marks the end of Breast Cancer Awareness month, so this is a gentle reminder to take a minute today to check your breasts.
A lump in the breast is the most common symptom of breast cancer, but there are others to look for:
• thickening of the skin or tissue of the breast
• dimpling of the skin of the breast
• a lump or swelling in either armpit
• a change in the shape or size of the breast, such as swelling in all or part of the breast
• a nipple turning in (inverted nipple)
• an eczema-like rash on the nipple
• discharge or bleeding from the nipple
• pain or discomfort in the breast that does not go away – but this is rare.
We understand that showing any symptoms of what could be cancer is worrying. The most important thing is to speak to your GP as soon as possible
