I've been diagnosed with breast cellulitis is it sign of breast cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well: Having cellulitis does not mean that you have breast cancer. However, peau d' orange is a breast appearance that can occur with inflammatory breast cancer. It is due to cutaneous lymphatic edema. Edema could occur with cellulitis or with inflammatory breast cancer.
