1. Skin with an “orange peel” appearance
Another important sign is a change in the texture of the skin on the breast.
When it becomes uneven, reddish, or resembles orange peel, this may be related to inflammation or changes in the tissue beneath the skin.
Although it may seem like a simple cosmetic detail, this type of change should be evaluated immediately by a specialist.
2. Changes in the nipple or presence of discharge
The nipple can also present warning signs. If it retracts, suddenly inclines, or has discharge—especially with blood—it is essential to consult a gynecologist or a breast specialist.
These changes, although not always related to cancer, can indicate alterations in the mammary glands that should be carefully examined.
3. Lump or swelling in the armpit:
A lump or swollen lymph node in the armpit may go unnoticed, but it also deserves attention.
Although swollen lymph nodes are common in simple infections, a persistent lump may indicate the presence of abnormal cells.
Only clinical and imaging tests can confirm what is happening, so don’t ignore this type of symptom.
