The nurse is performing a breast examination and is palpating into the tail of Spence. Why is it appropriate to palpate this area of the breast during an examination?
1. It does not contain any lymph nodes.
2. It can show the difference between fibrocystic disease and fibroadenomas.
3. Breast cancer occurs more frequently in this area.
4. Peau d’orange may occur in this area of the breast.
