Breast care
Breast Care is a scientific journal that encompasses all aspects of breast biology. As an interdisciplinary journal, it includes manuscripts describing research, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of malignant and benign diseases of the breast. In addition to presenting current developments in clinical research, it addresses broader topics in clinical practice by including articles that address legal, financial, and economic issues of importance. Breast Care is addressed to clinicians and practitioners working and researching in the field of breast health, breast ailments, and breast cancer.
Things to Know
It’s important to examine your breasts regularly so that you can notice if changes are happening. Breast changes are common and most of them are not caused by cancer. You should tell your healthcare provider as soon as possible if you notice:
- A lump or lumps in one or both breasts
- Pain or tenderness
- Fluid leaking from a nipple (when you’re not making milk for breastfeeding)
- A nipple starts pulling in instead of poking out (becomes inverted)
- The skin of a breast changes (such as turning red or puckered)
