What does a lump in your breast feel like and how do you check for lumps?
In today's video I am discussing self-examination, and explaining what a lump actually feels like, so you know what to look for when you are examining yourself.
Early detection through self-examination plays a crucial role in improving survival rates. Self-examination involves carefully palpating the breasts to detect any unusual lumps, changes in texture, or skin abnormalities.
Regular self-exams empower you to become familiar with their breast tissue, enabling them to recognize deviations from the norm promptly.
While self-exams are not a substitute for professional screenings, they serve as a valuable proactive measure, facilitating early detection and timely medical intervention.
