Breast hyperplasia lumps

In the case of breast hyperplasia lumps, we can use massage or moxibustion to relieve the lumps. If massage and acupuncture can still eliminate the lumps, we should use surgery to remove them, otherwise the lumps may become cancerous. In the case of breast hyperplasia and lumps, you can massage the Taichong point and Xiangu point. Breast hyperplasia and lumps are more likely to occur in the early stages of the menstrual period. I hope female friends will pay attention to this.

What to do if breast hyperplasia, pain and lumps occur

For breast hyperplasia, you can often press these two acupoints:

1. Taichong Point

One of the important acupoints on the human body's foot Jueyin liver meridian, it is located between the big toe and the second toe. When massaging, the direction should be downward. Use the left thumb to rub the right Taichong point until you feel a sore and swollen feeling. After 1 minute, use the right thumb to rub the left Taichong point for 1 minute. This is especially effective for the early stages of breast hyperplasia.

2. Xiangu Point

Next to Taichong, located between the second and third toes, it belongs to the Stomach Meridian of Foot Yangming. People who already have severe breast hyperplasia usually have reaction points on this acupuncture point, with many granules or small nodules, which will be very painful if pressed lightly. According to the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine or the theory of holographic biology, as long as you rub these granular nodules apart, the breast hyperplasia will be relieved.

People who are prone to breast hyperplasia

1. Women with early menarche and late menopause

The risk of breast hyperplasia for women who have their first menstruation at the age of 11 to 13 is 2 to 3 times higher than that for women who have their first menstruation after the age of 17. The risk of breast hyperplasia is three times higher for women who reach menopause at age 55 or older than those who reach menopause at age 45 or younger. Therefore, women who have early menarche and late menopause have relatively high estrogen levels in their bodies and are more likely to develop breast hyperplasia.

2. Elderly unmarried, childless, and breastfeeding people

Adult women can effectively prevent breast hyperplasia by secreting hormones through pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding. For some patients with milder conditions, unmarried women with mild breast hyperplasia will see improvement in their endocrine regulation after pregnancy and breastfeeding. Therefore, older unmarried, childless, and non-breastfeeding women have a relatively higher incidence rate.

3. People with unstable emotions and irritability

An important factor that causes breast hyperplasia in women is emotional instability and mood swings. When women are in negative emotions such as anger, sadness, worry, and anxiety for a long time, it is easy to inhibit the ovulation function of the ovaries, resulting in a decrease in progesterone and a relative increase in estrogen, thus causing breast hyperplasia.

4. Those with a family history of disease

If a woman has a family history of breast hyperplasia, her probability of developing breast hyperplasia is two to three times that of healthy women.

Symptoms of breast hyperplasia

1. Breast pain: If the pain is severe, you should not touch the breast, and it may even affect your daily life and work. The pain may radiate to the ipsilateral armpit or shoulder and back; some may manifest as nipple pain or itching. Breast pain often occurs or worsens a few days before menstruation and is significantly relieved or disappears after menstruation. The pain may also fluctuate with mood changes, fatigue, and weather changes. This pain related to the menstrual cycle and emotional changes is the main feature of the clinical manifestations of hyperplasia of the breast.

2. Breast lumps: Lumps can occur in one or both breasts, single or multiple, and are generally found in the upper outer quadrant of the breast. It appears as flakes, nodules, cords, etc. of varying sizes, among which flakes are the most common. The border is not obvious, the texture is medium or slightly hard, there is no adhesion to the surrounding tissues, and there is often tenderness. Most breast lumps also change with the menstrual cycle. The lumps become larger and harder before menstruation, and shrink and soften after menstruation.

3. Nipple discharge: A small number of patients may experience nipple discharge, which is spontaneous and mostly light yellow or light milky white. In a few patients, discharge can be seen after squeezing the nipple. Be cautious if bloody or brown discharge occurs
