Breast

Larger tumors may become evident as a painless mass. Less common symptoms include persistent changes to the breast, such as thickening, swelling, distortion, tenderness, skin irritation, scaliness, or nipple abnormalities such as ulceration, retraction, or spontaneous discharge. Typically, breast pain results from benign conditions and is not an early symptom of breast cancer.

More About Breast

The earliest sign of breast cancer is usually an abnormality detected on a mammogram before it can be felt by the woman or a health care professional.
