Is sudden breast redness and warmth after cancer treatment normal?
Community Member
6 days agoMy breast suddenly became red and extra warm to the touch. This is the same breast that had stage 2 cancer last year. I fully recovered after a lumpectomy and radiation. Afraid I have inflammatory breast cancer. Anyone have that??
