Paget's of the nipple

Has anyone had any experience with this type of breast cancer?  I think my husband has it.  He had a mammogram and ultrasound of the breast and they found no masses.  His doctor felt it was only trauma to the nipple, he earlier fell off a ladder and landed on his chest.  Since his visit, which was about 2 mos ago, the nipple has become much uglier and definitely not improving.  He goes back to his doctor in a week and I have a feeling he is going to be sent to a breast surgeon.  If anyone has had this, or has any knowledge of anyone going through this, please let me know!

Thanks, Susan (newbie)

    It is just another variety of BC.  There are so many.  Paget's does not present with a lump, I do believe, so that would explain the lack of a lump.

    You and hubby are so welcome here and come back and post whenever you need to.

    Gentle hugs, Shirlann
