3. Lump or swelling in the armpit:
A lump or swollen lymph node in the armpit may go unnoticed, but it also deserves attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although swollen lymph nodes are common in simple infections, a persistent lump may indicate the presence of abnormal cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Only clinical and imaging tests can confirm what is happening, so don\u2019t ignore this type of symptom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best option is to take care of yourself.
Doctors recommend performing breast self-exams every month, preferably after menstruation, to become more familiar with your body and identify any changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Starting at age 40, regular mammograms\u2014performed every one or two years, as recommended by a doctor\u2014are essential for prevention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Early detection of breast cancer significantly increases the chances of a cure and reduces the impact of treatment. Information and care are the best weapons in the fight against this disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you notice anything different, consult your doctor as soon as possible. Taking care of yourself is the first step toward a healthier and safer life.<\/p>\n
