Male breast cancer is very serious, and early detection is important for both treating and beating this disease.
Men represent less than 1% of ALL breast cancer cases, but the death rate is significantly higher for male breast cancer than for both prostate and testicular cancer.
If you think you have a breast problem: pain, tenderness, burning, a lump, or whatever, then you need to make an appointment with your doctor!
If you are a man with breast cancer, call the YourShoes and be matched with a male breast cancer survivor. Thank you Breast Cancer Network of Strength!
