7. Swollen Lymph Nodes
Sometimes cancer spreads to nearby lymph nodes before a breast lump becomes obvious.
This may cause swelling:
- Under the arm
- Near the collarbone
- Around the upper chest
Lymph node enlargement can also occur with infections, so professional evaluation is necessary.
8. Changes in Breast Shape or Size
Subtle alterations may develop gradually.
Examples include:
- One breast becoming noticeably larger
- Distortion of normal contours
- Unexpected asymmetry
- Localized swelling
Changes that persist or worsen over time should be assessed.
