Breast Cancer Awareness Month

This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, take the time to #KnowYourNormal. It’s always best to get anything unusual checked by a doctor early on.

According to the NHS, you should contact your GP if you encounter any of the following:

• a new lump or area of thickened tissue in either breast that was not there before
• a change in the size or shape of one or both breasts
• a discharge of fluid from either of your nipples
• a lump or swelling in either of your armpits
• a change in the look or feel of your skin, such as puckering or dimpling, a rash or redness
• a rash (like eczema), crusting, scaly or itchy skin or redness on or around your nipple
• a change in the appearance of your nipple, such as becoming sunken into your breast
