Could Lump In Breast Indicate IBC?

I woke up with an unexplainable bruise on my breast. Dark purple, about the size of the round part of a pop can. A marble size lump in the middle. Was not there when I went to bed. No way that it s due to trauma and I sleep alone. Is this something that could be a sign of IBC???

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have benign cyst, fibroadenoma or cancer. However with short time history chances of cancer is low.

You should go for breast mammography and fine needle aspiration cytology or core biopsy.

It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
