Breast Cancer

In the late 1600's, breast cancer was discovered. Symptoms of breast cancer are, lumps and humps on the breast, changes in breast size or shape, skin dimpling, nipple inversions. Treatments and helpful ways that can help cure this disease are radiation or surgery. The mortality for this disease is how long you have it or how far it spreads. This disease is the 2nd most common cancer in America and world wide. This disease affects the female population because it affects the breast however it could effect men but is rare. There are extra copies occurring at the molecular level with genes that cause this disease. We also need to find out why this happens so it can improve our research and expand our knowledge for this horrible disease. This disease makes me feel sad for anyone who has it and even family members who have to deal with it.
