Breast Cancer?


Question Posted Saturday February 25 2012, 10:22 pm

My left breast is itchy, and I think I itched it too much. Anyways, when I took off my shirt, my breast was red and it looked shiny; unlike my other breast. It burns A LOT. Do I have breast cancer? If not, what is this? And what do I do? Help immediately

Not cancer.

I mean, I'm not a doctor. I can't say with 100% certainty you don't have cancer, but your itchy breast doesn't mean you have cancer!

Most likely, something has irritated the skin on your breast. Ingrown hair, the sweating too much, an uncomfy shirt, a badly fitting bra... or even a bacteria skin infection. All of those are far, far more likely than cancer. Breast cancer doesn't 'itch'.

So stop scratching and make sure that none of your clothing (or new bath products maybe...) are causing it. Going to a doctor is not a bad idea if it continues. But stop with the cancer fear. That's just absurd.
