Early breast cancer usually does not cause pain and may cause no symptoms at
all. It is normally found when a suspicious
lump is detected. It must be about the size of a finger tip before it can
be felt. Other signs of cancer include
• Breast or nipple skin that is warm, red, swollen, or scaly
•
Change in the shape or size of the breast
•
A lump or thickening near the breast, or in the underarm
•
Nipple discharge that is not breast milk
•
Nipple tenderness
•
A nipple that is turned inward, or inverted
•
A rash around the nipple that may bleed, itch, or cause skin breakdown
•
Ridges or pits in the breast
•
Skin that is dimpled like an orange.
Women are recommended to examine their
breasts once in a month to detect any changes or lumps. If breast self
-examination detects a lump, the family doctor should be consulted. ment include cesium, iridium, iodine, phosphorus, and
palladium. The side effects of implant therapy depend on the area being treated.

Ans:
Dear Suresh,
Smoking is hazardous to your health. There is no reason why should start this bad habbit at this age it is a very difficult habit to break once you are addicted to cigarettes. Smoking can cause lung problems such as Asthma and lung cancer. Throat cancer is another complication of smoking .
SO PLEASE STOP SMOKING..
You may not have cancer but there is no reason to indulge in risky behaviour. Some Cancers are curable if treated early. Stress can cause sweating high heart rate etc..
If your symptoms persists you may have to consult a doctor.
Please take care.
