– The American Cancer Society estimates that this year, there will be 2,650 new cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed in men and about 530 men will die from breast cancer. This is a number that can be reduced with early detection.
Charlie Morris, a male breast cancer survivor, told KPRC 2 he received support from The Rose after discovering a lump in his left breast in 2019. “You get a lump or swelling, sometimes your nipple area will pull a little bit or be inverted and get soreness, pain, scaling and a little red rash around there someone on your breast where it is. Anything like that, you need to have it checked out,” Morris said.
His advice to other men who may be going through treatment is to surround themselves with positive people. He also said early detection is key.Morris had his yearly mammogram last week and said the results came out great. While some men have breast cancer due to mutations and genetics, he said that wasn’t the case for him.
