Question - IBC

Ela86

Hello,

I hope that everyone is going well.

I have question about IBC, I had some dermatological problems with skin on my left breast few months ago. I thought that this is the worst but everything cleared after using some cream. Now, I don't know if this is my mind or what is going on but I noticed 3-4 months ago pink area (around 5 cm) on my right breast. It looks totally different what I had before. Skin is soft, I don't feel any other symptoms. What is weird, morning this area looks better (there is no pink color but I can see only light shade), in afternoon is more pinkish. Now, I think that this area is getting bigger.

My question is... if IBC can looks better then worse? How long does it take for the next symptoms to appear? I've been to the doctor so many times with my left breast & now, I don't want to go again if this is nothing. I am worried about this because, it looks weird for my (I am really sensitive if going about my skin on breast, I had previous some problems and now I am panicking). I really don't know what I should think about it. If anyone can answer my questions I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance.

Ela86, sorry you are worried again, but I think we pretty much answered these same questions on your September and November posts. I think most of us would still tell you a dermatologist would be a good idea if you are worried. IBC does not come and go and it wouldn’t change breasts
