2. Lumps of any kind

You shouldn’t ignore any new or dubious changes you spot on your body, especially lumps, according to Nesochi Okeke-Igbokwe, MD, a physician, and health expert. “Any new or changing lumps, moles, or lesions that you find on the body should be brought to the immediate attention of a doctor,” she says.

It’s essential to check these things more often because if it happens to be a cancerous change, then earlier detection and treatment are the easiest ways for a better outcome, says Dr. Okeke-Igobkwe. Don’t ignore the signs your body sends you!
