When they discover the change in the skin, it's already stage 3 or 4. If you could talk with this MD again and ask her how to discover the cancer BEFORE the signs intervene the skin, it would be helpful. How does this type of cancer look on MRI and Ultra Sound? Why wouldn't it be the first thing to do instead of a Mammogram?

Please remember some of us are black. Please can you tell us what colour it would look like if it was on black skin.

The simply orange peel still applies, even though you can’t see the red.

Can there be a lump with the inflammation symptoms?

[@melissamir909]

Do the antibiotics clear up the infection or “mask” it short term? For example if the infection keeps recurring every 4-6 weeks?

[@robertcordts5083]

in my case, the antibiotics did nothing

[@lezty2011]

Antibiotics and steroids just mask it. It continues to reappear and Biopsy results come clear 😢

What's funny is how we spend so much time identifying symptoms. What's the root cause?
Parasites!!! Worms!!! Detox today

We feel lump. But ultrasound doesn't show it
