Popular television actress Hina Khan has shared a heartfelt post on her Instagram account revealing that she has been diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. The news has caused a stir in the media and amongst her fans all over the country.

In her Instagram post, Hina Khan expressed her gratitude towards her fans and informed them about her health condition. She stated that she is determined to fight against the disease with all her strength and has already started her treatment.

Breast cancer originates in the breast tissues and gradually progresses as the cells in the breast grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor. Stage 3 breast cancer, also known as invasive breast cancer, affects the breast and surrounding tissues, including the chest muscles and lymph nodes.

The stage of breast cancer is determined based on the size of the tumor (T), the number of affected lymph nodes (N), and whether the cancer has metastasized to other parts of the body (M), which is not the case in Stage 3 breast cancer.

Common symptoms of breast cancer include the presence of a lump or swelling in the breast, changes in breast size, nipple discharge, itching in the breast area, and pain in the breast or nipple. If any of these symptoms are noticed, it is essential to consult a doctor immediately for further evaluation.

We wish Hina Khan a speedy recovery and encourage everyone to stay informed about the signs and symptoms of breast cancer for early detection and treatment.
