White discharge from the nipple

The appearance of white secretions on the surface of the nipple will make female friends very nervous. Many people believe that this situation is a precursor reaction caused by breast cancer. However, there are many types of diseases nowadays, and it is not necessarily due to breast cancer. It is still necessary to find the cause and prescribe the right medicine to improve your condition, relieve the pain, and prevent white secretions from the nipple from reappearing.

(1) Breast self-examination. The best time to do a breast self-examination is 7 to 10 days after each menstruation, because breast nodules and tenderness are least obvious at this time, which is conducive to a clear diagnosis. Women after the age of 30-35 should do a self-examination every 1-3 months and have a doctor examine them every six months.

(2) Fibrocystic breast disease. This disease can be called mastopathy and is very common in adult women. Its cause is currently unknown, but it may be related to estrogen levels. Breast pain and breast lumps are common symptoms. Breast pain is often related to the menstrual cycle. The common symptoms are worsening breast pain before menstruation and relief of pain after menstruation, and sometimes the pain is irregular. Breast lumps are often multiple, generally small, irregular in shape, and sometimes with unclear boundaries.

This symptom can remain stable at a certain stage for a long period of time. If female friends find these symptoms, they should go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis to rule out breast cancer. Patients diagnosed with breast disease should continue to go to the hospital for long-term follow-up, even though the malignancy rate of the disease is low. There is no special treatment for this disease in Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly focuses on soothing the liver and regulating qi, softening and resolving lumps. Commonly used Chinese patent medicines include Xiaoyaosan and Xuanhuzhitongtang.

(3) Breast fibroids. The disease occurs most frequently in the age group of 20-50 years old, and is the most common type of benign breast tumor. The main cause of the disease is that the sensitivity of the fibroblasts in the lobule to estrogen is abnormally increased, causing excessive proliferation of fibroblasts and forming tumors. Therefore, fibroadenomas are more common in children and young people. This disease is related to estrogen. As a woman, although suppositories and birth control pills are still possible, progesterone can play a certain protective role, but it should not be taken indiscriminately. A painless lump in the breast.

Single or multiple, the lumps have clear boundaries, are movable, have smooth surfaces, and have no adhesions to the surrounding areas. The course of the disease is slow and can remain the same for several years or even longer. These are the main symptoms of breast fibroids. Although the malignant transformation rate of breast fibroadenoma is only 0.2%, we should still be vigilant. Taking Chinese and Western medicine is almost ineffective for fibroids. Surgical resection is the only effective treatment method, and pathological biopsy is routinely performed after the operation.

The current leading technology in the treatment of breast diseases is "meridian infiltration therapy". "Meridian Infiltration Therapy" is a new treatment for breast diseases that is based on the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the feedback regulation mechanism produced by the stimulation of the central nervous system by infiltration drugs. It uses circulatory local injection of special drugs to dredge the meridians, soften and disperse nodules, and relieve pain and inflammation. Clinical experts conducted follow-up surveys on thousands of breast patients and found that this new technology is relatively safe and simple.
