A member asked:
How does cancer produce dimpling of the overlying skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dimpling: Sometimes the mass causes mild swelling around it that is not enough to be seen but it's enough to make the connective tissue/ligaments that support the breast to be pulled inward and causing skin dimpling.
