Rotary Club health camp detects possible breast lumps
The Rotary Club in Salt Lake, Kolkata, held a health camp for women.
They checked over 200 women for different health problems.
Two women were found with possible lumps in their breasts.
The doctors said these lumps need more tests but can be treated if found early.
Many women were also found to have low blood iron, which can make them feel weak.
The camp gave free medicine and advice on how to stay healthy.
The doctors told everyone to check their breasts regularly and eat healthy food.
This camp helps women know about their health and get treatment early.
A health camp in DA Block, Salt Lake, screened over 200 women aged 16-55 for various health issues.
Two women were detected with possible breast lumps, including a 21-year-old with a 5cm tumor.
66-70% of women surveyed across 65 camps were found to be anaemic, leading to weaker health.
The camp provided free screenings, counseling, iron tablets, calcium, and deworming tablets.
Experts advised self-breast exams, mammograms for women over 40, and healthy lifestyle choices.
