What type of breast pain is a sign that you might have breast cancer?
Breast Pain and CancerThere is no specific type of breast pain that is a sign that a patient might have breast cancer. Breast cancer does not typically cause breast pain.Virtually all the breast pains that women experience are caused by benign problems. Most of these are caused by fibrocystic breast and hormonal changes.However, you have to be careful when you hear people say that if you have breast pain then, you do not have breast cancer. This is because breast pain and breast cancer can coexist in the same breast, but they are not usually related. In other words one did not cause the other.So, the same woman with breast cancer can have breast pain, just like the same woman with breast cancer can have blue eyes or grey hairs.So, a woman with breast pain is not protected from breast cancer and should still be screened for breast cancer like any other woman.

Can breast cancer turn into bone cancer?
Yes, advanced breast cancer can metastasize to skin, although it is not that common for the breast cancer to spread to areas of skin besides the affected breast. That cancer that has spread to the skin will be the same pathology as the breast cancer which are commonly carcinomas. The original breast cancer will not change into melanoma or basal cell carcinoma once it spreads to skin. That would be a second new cancer.

Does breast feeding play a part in breast cancer?
Medical studies have shown a fairly clear relationship between breast feeding and a strong reduction in breast cancer. The general number I have read is that if a woman has a cumulative time of 18 to 24 months breast feeding she has a significant lower chance of contracting breast cancer. Once again, breast feeding pays dividends beyond keeping your baby fed!
