I have little knowledge about the symptoms of breast cancer. However, from what I have read, I think incessant discharge of breast milk from a no nursing mother is a strong indicator of cancer of the breast.

Its not enough to talk about the symptoms. What about the prevention? Ask your doctor about breast cancer screening. Discuss with your doctor when to begin breast cancer screening exams and tests, such as clinical breast exams and mammograms.

In addition to what you just said, I believe that breast cancer is a serious disease but if discovered earlier  can be treated. So that's why I believe that ladies should always check their breast for lump. If a lump is found in the breast at early stage, it can be removed otherwise it can enlarge and lead to breast cancer. 

God protect our ladies from cancer

I am kolo baba Mohammed Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer death in women after lung cancer. Causes After puberty, a woman's breast consists of fat, connective tissue, and thousands of lobules. These are tiny glands that produce milk for breastfeeding. Tiny tubes, or ducts, carry the milk toward the nipple. Cancer causes the cells to multiply uncontrollably. They do not die at the usual point in their life cycle. This excessive cell growth causes cancer because the tumor uses nutrients and energy and deprives the cells around it. Breast cancer usually starts in the inner lining of milk ducts or the lobules that supply them with milk. From there, it can spread to other parts of the body.
