What age is at greater risk of getting breast cancer?

Does getting hit in the boob increase your risk of getting breast cancer?

  • My sister hits me there ALL the time and she told me it could increase my risk of getting breast cancer. So I was wondering if she was just messing with my head.

  • Answer:

    I'm no Dr. but I am an 8 year survivor of stage 3 breast cancer. My Dr. told me when I first learned I had breast cancer that by me being hit there over the years and from me hitting the area real hard on my poster bed I could have damaged tissue that could have turned into the cancer cells. My cancer first appeared as bleeding from my nipple. I never had any lumps nor was the area painful at the time. I had two mammograms once I notice the bleeding and each time my local Dr and Hospital told me I was fine and had nothing to worry about. I was given antibiotics and sent home. However after the bleeding started again I went to see another Dr. and hospital at REX Med. In Raleigh, N.C. and they told me I had a mass that looked to be malignant and to prepare myself for the worse. I then went to UNC Medical in Chapel Hill, N.C. and had a biopsy done and it came back positive. Again they said it could have been caused by repeated damage to the area among other reasons. You STOP your sister or anyone else from hitting you in the breast or anywhere now. You deserve better treatment than that. Your life may depend on it.

No it doesn't, Cancer isn't caused by external trauma or injury, nor is the risk of it increased. Breast cancer, like all other cancers, happens when normal cells change so that they grow in an uncontrolled way. No blow to the breast, no punch, pinch, bte etc can trigger this process. Here is a link to an article about breast cancer myths, including this one: http://www.netwellness.org/question.cfm/11349.htm http://www.swedish.org/17384.cfm

Hey there!! No, hitting there should not cause you breast cancer!! However, it is not healthy and social for you people to touch your private parts in that manner!!! Breast cancer usually starts as a small lump in the breast which later spreads to other tissues surrounding breast!! So, one should always be looking out for any small lumps or swellings in their breasts while having a bath or changing over and any swelling should be examined and properly dealt with!! I hope this answers your question!!

Cancer is cosed by an unnatural reproduction of cells in one specific body part making what is known as a tumer. Being hit repeatedly does not cause breast cancer. she was probably messing with you
