What is a lump in the breast? See the answers from authoritative experts

Female friends, please take note: when you find a lump in your breast, you should pay close attention to it, but don't be too nervous. You should adjust your mindset and go to the hospital for a detailed examination to understand the root cause of the breast lump, which will make it easier to treat.

1. The causes of breast lumps are generally as follows: 1. Negative mental factors such as excessive mental tension and excessive emotional excitement; 2. Multiple abortions can easily lead to breast hyperplasia. 3. Breast structure disorder caused by absolute or relative increase in estrogen and absolute or relative decrease in progesterone. 4. Long-term use of health products and contraceptives containing estrogen.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that there are many meridians throughout the breast, and the breast itself is an organ with abundant blood and energy. There are many transportation channels. When Qi and blood are out of balance, blood circulation is poor, and Qi and blood stasis occur in the breast, lobular hyperplasia is formed, which is called "Ruyan" in traditional Chinese medicine, meaning that the rock will continue to grow over time. The main principles of treatment are to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, soften and disperse nodules. You can take Chinese medicine such as qi and blood and capsules. This type of medicine is mainly pure Chinese medicine preparation, and its main functions are to replenish qi and blood, soothe the liver and regulate qi, and promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. It has a good therapeutic effect on breast pain, menstrual disorders, chloasma, etc. caused by imbalance of qi and blood in women.

3. Breast hyperplasia is mainly caused by endocrine disorders. The human endocrine system is a huge system. No matter which link, if there is a problem, it will lead to disorders of the entire endocrine system. At present, it may only manifest as breast hyperplasia, but if it is not promptly and comprehensively adjusted, it will easily cause other related diseases, such as irregular menstruation, chloasma, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts and other related endocrine disorders. Breast hyperplasia belongs to the gonad axis disease, and the endocrine glands that cause breast hyperplasia are located on the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary gonad axis. Only drugs that comprehensively regulate the hormone secretion of each gland on the gonad axis can more effectively treat breast hyperplasia. Therefore, once breast hyperplasia is discovered, it is recommended that patients seek treatment as soon as possible.

4. Lumps that appear in the breast include: inflammation, hyperplasia, fibroadenoma, tumor, lipoma, etc. Inflammation mostly occurs during lactation. The lump has unclear boundaries, is hard, immobile, has obvious tenderness, and has a high skin temperature. The lumps that appear due to hyperplasia are flake-like or cord-like, with unclear boundaries, soft texture, and tenderness. The size of the lumps increases or decreases with the menstrual cycle. In the latter three cases, the tumor is round, with clear boundaries and smooth surface when palpated (except in the late stage of the tumor), hard in texture, good in mobility, no tenderness, and no changes in the surface skin.

Suggestions: Because the specific condition of the tumor cannot be seen, the above analysis is for reference only. You can go to the hospital for a breast B-ultrasound or mammography examination to clarify its nature and then receive targeted treatment.
