 It's breast cancer awareness month.
It's the most common cancer in the UK with around 1 in 8 women diagnosed during their lifetime.
More than a third of women don’t check their breasts. It's important to regularly check for any changes including:
- A lump or swelling in the breast, upper chest or armpit
- A change to skin such as puckering or dimpling
- A change in the colour of the breast - it may look red or inflamed
- A nipple change - it may become inverted (pulled in)
- Unusual discharge from either nipple
- Changes in size or shape of breasts
You can find out more about what to look out for on here.
