Abstract
We report the case of a 24-year-old lady presented to our OPD with ulcerated lump in her left breast. She had no history of breast cancer in her first-degree relative. She had a history of painless lump in her left breast for the last 6 months, for which she consulted a homeopathic physician who started her on homeopathic medication. The lump gradually increased in size over the next few months and subsequently ulcerated 1 month back, with slough and intermittent bouts of bloody discharge.
