Breast cancer must be recognised and treated early. For people with early breast cancer this may offer the best chance of cure. For many, the first sign of breast cancer is a lump in the breast. However, breast cancer symptoms can vary widely – from lumps to some less obvious signs such as skin changes.
One of these:
Changes in the skin texture on or around breast: Dimpling
Dimpling of the skin could suggest that the tiny channels in the breast, called lymph vessels, which help get rid of waste products from the body, have become blocked. This causes the breast to become inflamed and swollen and a large area of skin to develop little dimples, like orange peel. In some cases, this is a sign of a type of breast cancer known as inflammatory breast cancer.
