  1. Inflammatory Breast Cancer and How is it Different from General Mammary Carcinoma? Inflammatory breast cancer or IBC is one of the rarest types of breast cancer which affects 1-5% of women from all over the world. It differs from the other types of breast cancer to a great extent owing to the symptoms, outlook and even the treatment procedure. The IBC symptoms are caused when the cancer cells block the lymph vessels in the skin causing the breast to look "inflamed." Patients can also experience change in the color of the skin, dimpling of the epidermal layer, etc. Therefore, if you notice such signs make sure to book an appointment for the best breast cancer treatment Kolkata. How is IBC different from other forms of breast cancer? 1.Unlike the general breast cancer, IBC does not show up in the form of obvious symptoms like breast lump, pain, etc. In some cases it might not even show up in the mammogram which makes it hard to diagnose. 2.Younger women who are under the age of forty are mostly susceptible to inflammatory breast cancer. 3.Women or other non-binary individuals who are overweight or obese have the chances of developing inflammatory breast cancer more than the low-weight counterparts. 4.IBC has a bad reputation for being more aggressive. It grows and spreads much more quickly and if not detected on time can be lethal. 5.Inflammatory breast cancer is mostly diagnosed at the locally advanced stage when the breast cancer cells have already grown into the skin. 6.Women who suffer from inflammatory breast cancer have to go through a lot more critical and intensive prognosis than those people who are suffering with other common types of breast cancer. Inflammatory breast cancer is treatable. If you are looking for an expert advice and preliminary diagnosis in case you are experiencing any kind of symptoms, then check out the best hospital for cancer care treatment in Kolkata and book an appointment by contacting them at the earliest.
