Self-diagnosis method for breast cancer patients

Female friends must pay more attention to their physical health and avoid gynecological diseases. For breast cancer, women should also learn to self-diagnose so that they can detect it early. The following will introduce the diagnosis method of breast cancer , hoping to be helpful to everyone.

◇ Self-reflection in the mirror: First, face the mirror, put your hands on your hips, and observe the shape of your breasts. Then raise your arms above your head and carefully observe whether the shape and contour of both breasts have changed; whether the breast skin has redness, swelling, rash, superficial vein engorgement, skin wrinkles, orange peel-like changes and other abnormalities; observe whether the nipples are on the same horizontal line, whether they are raised, retracted, or sunken, whether there is abnormal secretion overflowing from the nipples, and whether the color of the areola has changed. Finally, put down your arms, put your hands on your hips, and push your elbows back to tighten your chest muscles. Observe whether the breasts on both sides are equal and symmetrical, and whether there are any abnormalities in the nipples, areola, and skin. This is a relatively common method for diagnosing breast cancer.

◇ Lying flat touch method: First, lie on your back, raise your right arm above your head, and place a small pillow under your right shoulder to flatten the right breast. Then put the four fingers of your left hand together and use the palm of your fingertips to check whether there are lumps or other changes in various parts of the breast. There are three ways to check: one is the clockwise circular inspection method, that is, use four fingers to check from the nipple area from the inside to the outside in a circular manner. The second is the vertical band inspection method, that is, use the tips of four fingers to check the entire breast from top to bottom. The third is the wedge inspection method, that is, use the tips of four fingers to check radially from the nipple to the outside. Then use the same method to check the left breast and compare the differences between the two breasts. Finally, use your thumb and index finger to gently squeeze the nipple. If there is transparent or bloody secretions, report to the doctor in time.

◇Shower inspection method: When you shower, it is easier to find breast problems because your skin is moist. The method is to slide the palm of one finger slowly and carefully check all parts of the breast and armpit for lumps.

The above is the diagnosis method for breast cancer. If you suspect that you have breast cancer, you must go to a regular hospital for examination in time. If you want to know more about breast cancer, please consult online experts.
