What is Breast Cancer?

Breast cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the breast grow uncontrollably and form a tumor. It most commonly begins in the milk ducts or milk-producing lobules. Early detection and timely treatment significantly improve survival and recovery outcomes.

Common signs and symptoms of breast cancer may include:

  • A new lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
  • Changes in breast size, shape, or appearance
  • Nipple inversion, discharge, or skin changes
  • Redness, dimpling, or swelling of the breast
  • Swelling in the armpit or near the collarbone

Breast cancer treatment is tailored to each patient's condition and stage of disease. Options may include surgery, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, targeted therapy, and radiation therapy. Radiation therapy is commonly used to destroy remaining cancer cells after surgery and reduce the risk of recurrence.
