Self-treatment of breast disease

Breast disease is one of the common diseases among female friends. Many patients with breast disease do not pay enough attention to it.

At the same time, they should also master some self-treatment methods for breast disease and pay more attention to their breasts. Once they feel uncomfortable, they should seek medical attention in time and take appropriate measures according to the doctor's advice to prevent breast disease from becoming more serious.

Benign breast disease refers to inflammatory diseases, proliferative diseases, benign tumors and developmental abnormalities in the breast area. Although benign breast disease is not as life-threatening as malignant tumors, it can still cause pain to patients. Moreover, if it is not diagnosed and treated in time, the disease will continue to develop, making it difficult to completely cure it. Some benign diseases may even transform into malignant lesions, such as severe epithelial hyperplasia in breast hyperplasia and intraductal papillomavirus. Therefore, women with benign breast disease should pay special attention to breast self-care.

They should pay enough attention to the disease they suffer from, but not worry too much.

Women with various breast development abnormalities should pay attention to the particularity of their breasts in daily life. If surgery is required, they should actively cooperate with the doctor and make physical and psychological preparations for plastic surgery.

They should do regular self-examinations. If they find symptoms similar to those of the previous disease or other new discomfort in their breasts, they should see a doctor immediately.
