Breast Cancer
Breast cancer develops as a tumor that can either be seen (x-ray) or felt (lump). Men can get breast cancer, but it occurs primarily in women due to the amount of breast tissue.
Breast cancer can spread when the affected cells travel to other parts of the body, such as the lymph nodes.
