Signs & Symptoms

Know your Body

 Unlike most breast cancers, Lobular rarely forms a lump.

You know your body best so always be aware of any changes or differences that you feel.

If you have any of these symptoms, please don’t ignore them. Go and see your GP.

Signs and symptoms of Lobular Breast Cancer can include:

  • A tugging sensation in your breast
  • A change in the skin of your breast such as dimpling, puckering or a dent
  • Stabbing pains or pain that is there all of the time
  • A thickening area in your breast
  • New fullness or swelling
  • A persitent itch on the skin or inside your breast
  • Changes to your nipple. Is it inverting or ticking in a different direction?
  • Discharge or oozing from the nipple
The Charity Coppafeel provides a great guide for you to help in examining your breasts.
