No you can't. Cancer comes from abnormalities within cells. And your more likely to get cancer if your family member has everyhad it. but the chances of getting it from being hit to hard are low

Hi, Anon:

No. Simply put, cancer isn't caused by getting hit, wearing deodorant or underwire bras, for that matter.

I recommend watching Dr. Harness' video: What Causes Breast Cancer to learn important information and dispel your fears.

Hope this helps.
