Is there a link between leg pain and breast cancer?

Leg pain has nothing to do with breast cancer. Breast cancer is a malignant tumor and a type of breast disease. It is different from breast hyperplasia or mastitis. Breast cancer mainly occurs in women, with only about 1% of male patients. Moreover, the global incidence of breast cancer is currently on the rise. Genetic and psychological factors are closely related to it.

Its clinical manifestations mainly include:

1. Breast lumps are often discovered accidentally by patients during medical consultation. Such lumps can occur in multiple or single cases, feel hard when touched, have irregular edges, and are not smooth on the surface.

2. If women experience nipple discharge during the non-lactating period, whether it is blood or pus, it should be taken seriously.

3. Breast cancer patients often have skin changes, such as dimples or orange peel-like changes.

4. The nipple and areola of the breast may undergo different changes. For example, when the tumor is close to the deep part of the nipple, it may cause nipple retraction.

5. Breast cancer patients often experience enlarged axillary lymph nodes, which is a common manifestation that breast cancer has metastasized to the lymph nodes.
