Knowledge about comedonal mastitis

Comedonal mastitis, we may not know what this disease is like, because we don't know much about it, so how can we find out and treat it if we get it? Because everyone's body is different, we must understand it clearly, so let's take a look at the relevant knowledge in this regard and understand the situation!

1. The disease is caused by irregular proliferation of the mammary duct epithelium, secretory dysfunction, and accumulation of lipid secretions in the large milk ducts under the nipple and areola, which causes the milk duct to dilate. Later, the accumulation decomposes and the chemical substances produced continuously stimulate the surrounding tissues, causing inflammation. Sometimes the inflammation will attack acutely and become an abscess, so the pus often contains tofu dregs or powdery substances, so it is also called "acne mastitis".

2. Comedonal mastitis (Western medical name: plasma cell mastitis or mammary duct ectasia) is caused by liver depression turning into heat, and the flesh rotting and festering. Most of them have congenital nipple retracted deformity, and powdery residue is often discharged from the nipple. In acute attacks, the pus often contains powdery residue as the main manifestation of carbuncle-like diseases.
