🎀 OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH 🎀
This October, the Newburgh Volunteer Fire Department is proud to help raise awareness about breast cancer and the importance of early detection.
Breast cancer can affect women and men, and knowing what is normal for your body can make a difference. Early detection often provides more treatment options and better outcomes.
🚒 Know the basics:
Be familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel.
Talk with your healthcare provider about any new lump, swelling, skin changes, ni**le changes, or other unusual symptoms.
Discuss your personal risk factors and when breast cancer screening should begin for you.
Encourage your family and friends to stay informed and keep up with recommended health screenings.
🎀 Awareness. Education. Early Detection. Support.
Throughout October, we recognize breast cancer survivors, remember those we have lost, and stand beside everyone currently fighting this disease.
