Is 6 lymph node metastasis of breast cancer serious?

Breast cancer refers to a disease caused by the uncontrolled proliferation of breast epithelial cells, which then become malignant. If it metastasizes to distant lymph nodes, it is a relatively serious condition. If the metastasis is small and points to the armpits on both sides, it is not a particularly serious condition. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Severe: If the range of lymphatic metastasis is relatively large and metastasis occurs to distant lymph nodes, the cancer cells are considered to be highly malignant and belong to mid-to-late stage breast cancer, indicating that the breast cancer is in a serious condition and it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and actively carry out comprehensive treatment to delay the progression of the disease.

2. Not serious: If the cancer cells have only metastasized to the lymph nodes in the armpits on both sides, it is not a particularly serious situation, indicating that breast cancer may be in the early stage. Generally, it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice for surgical removal, but for early breast cancer, breast-conserving surgery can be chosen.

Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that can affect human health. If you experience symptoms related to breast cancer, you should go to the hospital for targeted treatment in time to prevent the cancer cells from spreading or metastasizing and affecting your health.
