Q: Scaley skin on breast sign of breast cancer?

I wrote this before, but after doing a lot of research I'm now REALLY nervous. I read that scaley skin on breast is one of the signs of breast cancer. I'm 19 years old, they dont hurt or itch... i don't believe theres any lumps, I can't feel any... The only "sympthom" that I have is the scaley skin on breast. and I've had it for about a year..

should I be nervous?!

Sounds more like a skin issue. Like maybe you have dry skin.

The fact that you have no other symptoms would lead me to believe this is NOT breast cancer.

If you are concerned, see your doctor.
