Your breasts can change over time, so it’s important to become familiar with how they normally look and feel.
When checking your breasts, take your time and note what is normal for you. Look for any new or unusual changes, including a lump, skin dimpling, ni**le changes, discharge or persistent pain.
Not every change is cancer, but any new or persistent change should be assessed by your GP or healthcare professional.
Know your normal. Check your breasts regularly. Don’t ignore changes.
