However, when conditions outside the body are due to an unhealthy lifestyle, including smoking, lack of movement, and consumption of foods containing building blocks cancer too strong, the abnormal cells continue to grow and become lumps or called tumors. Chairman of the Indonesian Cancer Foundation (YKI), Prof. DR. dr. Aru Wisaksono Sudoyo, said that if you are a smoker, the chance of getting one of the deadly diseases increases by 30 percent.

“These cells have the ability to grow indiscriminately, quickly, disrupt the surrounding cells. Then appear to the surface and are called tumors or collections of cells that grow irregularly. There are benign and malignant tumors,” he said.

Aru again emphasized that 90 percent of cancer risk factors come from the environment, while the rest comes from damaged genes with a percentage of 5-10 percent. This means that most cells damage to cells after a person is born, aka due to the environment or lifestyle.

In the case of nasopharyngeal cancer, for example, one of the triggers is consumption food contains carcinogens, such as salted fish that are improperly processed to contain nitrosamines.

Not only food selection, how to dress, especially bras, is also a concern. Surgical oncology consultant surgeon at Dharmais Cancer Hospital, Alban Dien, cites the results of the study not recommending the use of a underwire bra all the time.

“I read there are some studies that state that it is not good to use wire when we have daily mobility,” he said.

Alban, who also practices at Eka Hospital Cibubur, said that a bra with a wire can put pressure on the body and form continuous inflammation or inflammation. One of the causes, cancer is continuous inflammation.

As a solution, she advised women to replace wire bras with normal bras at night or can just take them off. Indeed, wearing a bra is not associated with an increased risk of developing breast cancer, as a study in the journal has revealed Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention in 2014.
