Breast Cancer Screening For Early Detection Of Breast Cancer Lumps

Early Detection of Breast Cancer

Early detection of breast cancer can help you seek out remedial measures in the early stages.

Breast cancer screening can be through regular screening mammogram (an x-ray picture of your breasts), clinical breast examination and self-examination of breasts.

Mammograms For Breast Cancer Detection

You should have mammograms every one or two years if you are in your forties. This may show a breast lump even before you can feel it. Such breast lumps may or may not be cancerous, but further detailed tests like biopsy can determine abnormalities.

Breast Cancer Clinical Breast Examination

Clinical breast examination takes around ten minutes and a professional health care provider can check your breasts for any abnormalities. Such checking involves looking for dimpling, rashes or any abnormalities in your breasts.

Additionally, health care providers also check under your arms for enlargement of any lymph nodes.

Breast Cancer Self-Examination for Breast Lumps

Self-examination of breasts is a good way to check for breast cancer. However, there can be small changes in your breasts due to aging, before and during menstrual periods, menopause, birth control treatments and others natural reasons.
