Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for coming to us for help with your concerns.

You need to have these symptoms evaluated, in person, by your primary care physician. It is very important that you schedule an appointment as soon as possible.

Itching can be a sign of breast cancer, but this is very rare. There is a type of breast cancer called inflammatory breast cancer. With this type of cancer, the area of skin over the tumor can become red, inflamed, painful and itchy.

Please keep us updated.

Regards,
Maryann
