Breast cancer, a disease that has also been faced by other personalities like Verónica Toussaint and Olivia Munn, can present symptoms such as changes in the appearance of the breast, presence of lumps or skin alterations. Early detection is vital for the successful treatment of this disease, so it is recommended to perform self-examinations regularly and attend periodic medical check-ups.
