Therefore, to face up to breast cancer and understand the basic knowledge of prevention and treatment of breast cancer is a lesson we must face. What are the symptoms of advanced breast cancer.

What are the symptoms of breast cancer?

First: breast mass is the most important manifestation of advanced breast cancer symptoms, generally occurs in the upper part of the breast. Especially, we should pay more attention to the breast mass of adult women. Breast cancer is mostly single, rarely seen in the same breast multiple lesions. There are great differences in the shape of the masses. It is generally considered that the shape is irregular, the edge is not clear, and the texture is hard. In the early stage, the cancerous mass is confined to the breast parenchyma and can be pushed, but it is not as active as the benign tumor. Once it invades the fascia or skin, the mass can not be pushed, and the disease stage is relatively late. Secondly, breast cancer originated from glandular epithelium, and it is difficult to find carcinoma in situ. It is difficult to find the mass of about 12.5px in the deeper part of large breast, and it is easy to find the mass of more than 25px. There is also a rare breast cancer for occult breast cancer, the breast mass can not be found, late axillary metastasis has occurred.

Second: nipple discharge we know that nipple discharge can be physiological or pathological. The incidence of nipple discharge during non pregnancy and lactation is about 3% ~ 8%. Nipple discharge can be colorless, milky white, light yellow, brown, bloody, etc., and can also be watery, blood like, serous purulent; The amount of discharge can be more or less, and the interval time is also different. Generally, the discharge of advanced patients is more serious. At this time, smear cytological examination can be carried out to confirm the nipple discharge. Of course, breast cancer is mostly accompanied by breast masses.

Third: pain: most patients with early breast cancer have no obvious pain, but in the late stage of breast cancer, the pain is more obvious, and most of them are paroxysmal tingling and dull pain. At this time, they are generally in the middle and late stage of breast cancer, and may have metastasized.

matters needing attention

1. Surgical treatment. Surgical treatment of breast cancer is mainly to cut off the nerve that transmits pain stimulation to achieve the effect of pain relief. However, for patients with advanced breast cancer, the body is already very weak, and surgical treatment can not achieve satisfactory results. Although surgical resection can relieve pain, it can often damage the patient's sensory center and cause greater damage to the patient's body, Therefore, surgical resection is usually not used for advanced breast cancer. 2. Skin irritation. It is to improve the excitability of the nerve endings of the skin through friction, pressure and temperature changes on the skin of the affected area, so as to make the pain feel blocked and reduce. 3. Drugs can relieve pain. At present, there are a lot of cancer analgesics in clinic, but there is a big gap in curative effect, most of them have the disadvantages of large side effects and strong dependence, so we generally don't consider the use of Western medicine analgesics. We suggest that Chinese medicine analgesic patch has achieved reliable curative effect in the treatment of advanced breast cancer pain. Chinese medicine analgesic patch is safe, non-toxic and side effects, and will not form drug dependence. 4. Acupuncture. Acupuncture belongs to traditional Chinese medicine therapy, acupuncture has a certain anesthetic effect, can be used to relieve pain for patients with advanced breast cancer. 5. Nerve block can relieve pain. It is mainly to inject some drugs into the nerve or around the nerve, so as to transmit pain to the tissue, and inject drugs into the nerve or around the nerve to prevent nerve conduction pain. Local anesthetics and corticosteroids were used for temporary pain relief. After injection of phenol and ethanol, the pain relief time could last for a long time. The side effect was that the affected area lost all consciousness.
