The most common symptoms of breast cancer are a mass or lump felt in the breast but that's not always an indicator of breast cancer so you should still see your doctor to be sure that it's not breast cancer.

Besides the lump or mass a few other indicators of breast cancer are a nipple that turns inwards, and scaling, redness, or thickening of the nipple.

Other signs of breast cancer are a change in the texture of the skin on the breast and/or a clear or bloody discharge from the nipple.

Milky discharge from the breast if not breastfeeding can also be an indicator of breast cancer.
