Hi,
Some of the symtoms of inflamatory breast cancer include redness in the breast that may feel warm to the touch. Also the skin of the breast may feel or look like the skin of an orange. An inverted nipple may also be seen. If a person has any or all of these symtoms a doctor's visit should be scheduled. At first a doctor may think it is a breast infection and prescribe antibiotics. If the symtoms reappear after the course of antibiotics is finished, another doctor's visit should be scheduled. A needle biopsy may be recommended.
Peace,
ElaineM
