How to do a Breast Examination on yourself the correct way? - with Dr Tasha
In today's video, I am going to talk about conducting a self-examination on your breasts.
First of all, what are you looking for?
You should look at the shape of the breasts and then look at the skin. So are there any irregularities in the shape and the contour of the breasts? If a lump is present, sometimes you can actually see a fullness on the breast itself. Looking for any dimpling of the skin. People get a little bit confused when they hear this term and what is actually means is that the skin is drawn inwards exactly like a dimple of the cheeks.
To know more, watch the video till the end.
WORRIED ABOUT A BREAST LUMP OR SYMPTOM?
FRUSTRATED AND CONFUSED BY CONFLICTING INFORMATION?
TRYING TO NAVIGATE LIFE AFTER BREAST CANCER DIAGNOSIS AND DON’T KNOW WHERE TO TURN?
Breast health has become an important topic for both women and men. But with a huge amount of conflicting and confusing information out there, it can be hard to find the advice, support and care that you need.
My Breast My Health was created to make understanding breast health easy. Whether you’re looking to learn how to keep your breasts healthy, concerned about new symptoms or learning to live post-diagnosis, you’re in the right place.
Hi, I'm Dr TASHA
I’m a Doctor, Breast Cancer Surgeon and Medical Educator. After 20 years helping people to understand and overcome breast health problems, I’ve seen first hand the fear, frustration and stress that my patients go through.
As a breast specialist with over a decade’s worth of experience, I understand finding the right information, processing a diagnosis, understanding treatment and getting accurate, practical advice as you ride the rollercoaster of emotions can be really tough.
But I’m here to help.
Many people think that as a Breast Specialist Surgeon, I just do surgery. But that’s far from the truth. In fact, the majority of my patients don’t need any treatment at all - just advice and support.
The internet can be a wonderful source of information but when it comes to breast health there’s a lot of inaccurate information out there. Listening to the wrong advice could cause you unnecessary worry or even put your health at risk.
So I wanted to create an accessible hub where you could find useful, accurate and reliable information from a trusted source - a Breast Health Doctor - all in one place.
That’s exactly what you’ll find on My Breast My Health, welcome to my KZread Channel.

Any lumps?, bloody or abnormal nipple discharge? Breast cancer lumps are usually painless
I have something in my breast but I don't know if it's a lump or not

Both of you - arrange to see your GP. When making the appointment, mention that you have breast pain and are concerned - with any luck you may be seen sooner. In the meantime keep a record (eg. Write it down on your calendar or in a notebook /your phone) of where the pain is, what it feels like, how often you feel it, and any other info which may be helpful when seeing the doctor. It's always best to be safe than sorry so please don't be afraid about going to the doctor.
