Question

which position is recommended for performing the breast self - examination (bse)? in the bath in front of a mirror side - lying prone position

Explanation:

When performing breast self - examination (BSE), the side - lying position is recommended as it allows the breast tissue to spread out evenly over the chest wall, making it easier to feel for any lumps or changes.
