🎗️ Breast cancer is frightening — mostly because it’s misunderstood.

Описание: Breast cancer often feels overwhelming because many women don’t know what happens after they notice the first symptom.

In this video, Dr. Jay Anam explains the complete breast cancer journey — from first warning sign to final treatment and recovery.

🔎 Step 1: Recognising Early Signs

• Painless, firm lump that does not disappear
• Nipple changes
• Skin dimpling
• Persistent redness
• Unusual discharge

Breast pain alone is usually not cancer. But any new, persistent change should be checked.

🩺 Step 2: Imaging & Diagnosis

• Ultrasound (commonly for younger women)
• Mammogram (for women above 40)
• Biopsy — the most important test

A biopsy is simple, safe, and does NOT spread cancer. It gives a clear diagnosis.

📊 Step 3: Staging

Staging helps us understand:
• Tumour size
• Lymph node involvement
• Whether cancer has spread

It guides personalised treatment planning.

🔬 Step 4: Surgery & Reconstruction

• Breast conservation with oncoplastic reshaping
• Mastectomy when required
• Immediate reconstruction options
• Sentinel lymph node biopsy to reduce arm swelling

Modern surgery focuses on cancer removal AND preserving appearance and confidence.

💊 Step 5: Personalised Treatment

Depending on tumour biology:
• Hormone therapy
• Chemotherapy
• Targeted therapy
• Radiation therapy

Not every patient needs every treatment. Care is individualised.

🌿 Recovery & Follow-Up

• Early physiotherapy for arm mobility
• Gradual return to routine
• Regular follow-up visits
• Emotional support and counselling

Most women return to full normal life — work, travel, and daily activities — without restriction.

💗 The Most Important Message

Breast cancer detected early is highly treatable.
Treatment becomes simpler.
Recovery is faster.
Survival rates are very high.

Awareness and early action save lives. 🎗️
