Treatment options for cutaneous metastasis from breast cancer include:

1. Systemic Therapies: Hormone therapy, targeted therapy, or chemotherapy may help treat skin symptoms alongside the primary cancer.
2. Localized Treatments: Radiation therapy can shrink large tumors causing ulcers. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) uses electrical impulses to deliver low-dose chemotherapy, shrinking skin metastases and reducing pain or bleeding.
3. Topical Treatments: Medicated creams, sometimes combined with cryotherapy, have shown effectiveness in some cases.
