Jessie J and life after breast cancer: why recovery can include new surgeries

oglobo9 September 2026 at 12:52

Jessie J decided to take a break from social media at age 38 to focus on recovery after breast cancer treatment. The British singer, diagnosed with a breast tumor in 2025, revealed she plans to use this time to rest, take care of her health, prepare for a second breast reconstruction surgery, and spend more time with her 3-year-old son, Sky. She stated she is doing well and sees this moment as an opportunity to slow down.

The artist's decision draws attention to an often overlooked issue: the period that comes after cancer treatment. Many patients and family members wonder if the end of treatment also means the end of medical care, but the answer is no.

Even when there is no longer evidence of the disease, medical follow-up continues to be necessary. Recovery can include new surgeries, as is the case with Jessie J, who is facing a second breast reconstruction procedure.

The article highlights that the recovery process after cancer goes beyond the initial diagnosis and treatment, involving steps that often receive less attention but are fundamental to patients' quality of life.

What is 'toasted skin syndrome', increasingly common in children

Toasted skin syndrome, also known as Erythema Ab Igne (EAI), is a burn caused by prolonged exposure to low-intensity heat. Traditionally associated with the use of hot water bottles and heating pads, the condition has become increasingly common in children due to heat emitted by electronic devices such as computers, phones and laptops. A case review published by a researcher from Leicester NHS Trust reports the case of a child who arrived at the emergency room with a rash without apparent causes, returning two weeks later with worsening symptoms including pain on touch and peeling. Doctors warn about the need for awareness regarding the risks of prolonged use of electronic devices near the skin.

Bibiano Costa Launches Unprecedented Method to Study Prime Numbers at São Paulo Book Fair

Amazonas professor Bibiano Silva da Costa presented at the São Paulo Book Fair on September 7 his book "The Method of Sequences A and B and the Equations that Determine Only Prime Numbers," published by Autografia Editora. The work, the result of decades of studies and more than 40 years dedicated to teaching mathematics, proposes a new method to observe the distribution of prime numbers through so-called sequences A and B and mathematical relationships developed by the author. The method organizes numbers and identifies composites through sums and equations, presenting the remaining numbers as primes, in addition to addressing semiprimes and seeking to make the study of these numbers more accessible.
