Breast cancer symptoms?

Question by Pedro&Crystal.: Breast cancer symptoms?
Mygf is concerned that she might have Breast cancer. I told heri would try to find out as much as I can for her. What are the signs of breast cancer? How can you. Tell if to have it? And is it genetic?

Most comprehensive answer:

Answer by J B
You can go to WebMd.com and type in breast cancer and read up on this – there is lots of information there in an understandable format. It can run in families. Not all lumps are cancer – they can be cysts or fibrous tissue but a doctor has to make this determination.

Question by sunshine: Does biology have anything to do with Breast Cancer?
I believe that studies of heredity and genetics in Biology is somewhat connected to Breast Cancer symptoms. My friend thinks that its more on the Physiology/Anatomy side? Who is right and why?

The No 1 answer:

Answer by Raymond H.
Does it have ANYTHING to do with it? Of course. What doesn’t really have anything to do with another, if you really think about it? Besides, there really isn’t a right or wrong to it. Biology and other fields of science as well as all other subjects are simply general names given for those areas of study. They don’t really mean anything. You just have to learn the subjects, learn about, in this case, breast cancer(and everything else) and experience more and more and you will define it on your own. Why listen to what names others give things when you have a mind of your own? Use it or lose it=]

Inflammatory Breast Cancer

Combine this video with the excellent questions and answers given throughout this blog to improve your knowledge of breast cancer.

Breast cancer is something women think they know all about: Look for lumps; have mammograms; see our doctors. But none of that will save you from one silent breast cancer killer that women know virtually nothing about. It’s called “inflammatory breast cancer,” and it’s something every woman must know about.

Question posed by mzspngbob: What are the chances of a 13 year old girl having breast cancer?
I am 13 and will be 14 in exactly 20 days. I am above average as far as my chest size. For the past few days, I have been experiencing some very bad pain in one of my breasts. I have talked to my mom about it, but she said it may just be a briuse from working out in P.E. She told me that if the pain persists, she will set up a doctor’s appointment. Niether one of us has open expressed the possibility of it being breast cancer but I have thought about it. Maybe I am just ill informed as to what breast cancer is and I shouldn’t be worrying, please help.

No 1 answer:

Answer by Lisa
Given that your breasts are growing right now, the pain you’re feeling is probably perfectly normal. I’m glad your mom set up an appointment, though. I think it’s always better to be safe than sorry.

The chances of you having breast cancer at your age are very, very, very slim. So slim that, if you were my daughter, I wouldn’t be worried about it one bit.

I hope that helps and “Happy Birthday”.

Thank You!

Bras have nothing to do with cancer, but it is beyond me why anyone would want to sleep in one.

Answer by inverse_mushroom_cloud
It all depends on the particular cancer and the individual. Some women are treated and live for 50 more years. Some die within a year. There’s no way to guess about your mom’s friend based on the little you have said.
