Recurrent breast cancer occurs when cancer returns after initial treatment, appearing locally, regionally, or in distant organs. Causes include microscopic cells evading initial treatment and factors like hormone receptor status and genetic mutations. Symptoms vary but may include lumps, swollen lymph nodes, or bone pain. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and systemic therapy. Dr. Vijay Karan Reddy at Arete Hospital, Hyderabad, provides advanced care for breast cancer treatment.
