Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States other than skin cancer. Earlier stages of the condition present no symptoms. Later stages may result in a lump in the breast or armpit; changes in the size, shape or feel of the breast; and fluid discharge from the nipple.
