Lump in breast

There are many causes of hard lumps in the breast, and they need to be judged according to the period of onset. If it is during the weaning or breastfeeding stage, the appearance of hard lumps in the breast at this stage is a normal physiological phenomenon, mainly caused by milk accumulation. In other stages, it is generally caused by diseases such as lactation mastitis and breast hyperplasia, so women should do relevant examination methods.

What if I feel a lump in my breast?

(1) Mastitis during lactation

In the case of feeling a lump inside the breast, if the woman is breastfeeding at this time, and in addition to the symptoms of the breast lump, there are also problems such as breast pain, redness and swelling, it may be because the mammary ducts are blocked during lactation, which eventually causes milk to accumulate in the breast, causing a breast inflammation.

In such a situation, first of all, you must empty the milk in time and clear the mammary ducts in time, such as with hot compresses, breast massage, etc., so that the breast meridians can be restored to avoid greater damage from the disease.

(2) Breast hyperplasia

Breast hyperplasia is a common gynecological disease and the most common cause of lumps in the breast. Patients may experience breast lumps, breast tenderness, tingling or dull pain, which may be a physiological disease caused by endocrine imbalance and is considered to be closely related to the menstrual cycle.

In the case of breast hyperplasia, if you are in your menstrual cycle, generally no special treatment is required. Just take good care of yourself and actively adjust your mood.

(3) Breast fibroids

The onset of breast fibroadenoma can also cause lumps and hard masses in the breast, but the lumps caused by breast fibroadenoma are mostly regular. Patients do not feel obvious pain in the early stages of the disease, but it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time after diagnosis to avoid greater risk of damage.

What to do if there is a lump in the breast?

Generally speaking, if a woman has a lump in her breast, it is often because her daily life is too irregular and the underwear she wears is of poor quality. In modern society, women often bear greater pressure, not only having to take care of the family and children, but also having to earn money. Forced by life, many women work desperately and even stay up late to the point of overdrawing their lives.

If you have a lump in your breast, you should consider whether it is breast hyperplasia. The general clinical symptoms of breast hyperplasia are lumps in the breasts and pain in women. It is also possible that a tumor has grown in the breast. Regardless of the possibility, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a breast ultrasound examination to find out the cause and then prescribe the right medicine.

The treatment methods provided by the hospital will be different in different situations. If it is a tumor, it needs to be removed. If it is breast hyperplasia, and it is not very serious, it will be very effective through drug treatment and paying attention to diet in daily life. If it is in the late stage, it is very dangerous and must be treated surgically by a professional doctor, otherwise the woman may lose her life.
