Breast Cancer: Who’s most at risk, and what are the symptoms? 

Tammy Carlsrud of Norman Mahnomen Public Health was a guest on the KRJB Kaleidoscope program to raise awareness for breast cancer, as October is breast cancer awareness month. Carlsrud shares some statistics pertaining to breast cancer, and explains why the disease is so prominent and why it receives so much recognition. 

Breast cancer awareness month is all about promoting ways to detect the disease early, and one thing that can lead to early detection is knowing who’s most at risk. Carlsrud explains what people are most at risk for breast cancer. 

While doing regular self checks are an important step in early detection, knowing the symptoms of breast cancer are just as important, and Carlsrud tells us some of the symptoms you should be aware of.
