Knowing the signs can help save lives. Some symptoms to watch for include:
โœ”๏ธ A new lump in the breast or underarm
โœ”๏ธ Changes in breast size, shape, or appearance
โœ”๏ธ Unexplained pain in the breast or ni**le
โœ”๏ธ Skin changes such as dimpling, redness, or thickening
โœ”๏ธ Ni**le discharge other than breast milk

If you notice any of these changes, talk with your healthcare provider right away. Early detection is key to successful treatment.

At Care Initiatives, weโ€™re proud to recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month and remind everyone of the importance of prevention, awareness, and early care. ๐Ÿ’—
