yes skin mets differet from skin cancer- skin mets are breast cancer cells that have metasticized to the skin- they appear as small bumps. The only reason i know this si that I just had this convesation with my oncologist b/c i had a sore spot on my back and under my arm. Skin mets are extremely rare and can happen with any type of breast cancer-
as for my sore spots - under the arm was scar tissue and the back looked like an irritation- if i have learned anythig from this site is to check out all funny symptoms regardless - thank you
