Do I need to be accompanied during breast piercing?

Women's breasts are prone to disease. Diseases such as breast cysts, mastitis and breast hyperplasia are all common diseases. Some women may also develop breast cancer. To diagnose breast cancer, a physiological examination is required, and breast puncture is performed at this time. So, does breast puncture hurt? Do you need to be accompanied during breast puncture?

Is it necessary to accompany breast puncture?

Breast puncture biopsy refers to a method of puncturing a breast lump with a puncture device to obtain puncture biopsy tissue or cells for pathological examination. It is generally not required to be accompanied by a doctor. Since breast puncture is a minor surgical procedure, it is usually performed under local anesthesia. The wound is very small, just a small hole, which can heal in a week. The needle hole is basically invisible, and the operation is less painful. However, if the patient is an elderly person who is mentally depressed, frail, or has poor mental tolerance, it is recommended that relatives accompany him. Once a breast lump is found, it is recommended to go to the hospital for medical treatment, and the doctor will decide whether a breast biopsy is needed.

Is breast puncture painful?

Breast puncture is not likely to cause much pain because local anesthesia is used during the puncture. Breast puncture is a very common invasive treatment method that can collect breast tissue for puncture biopsy and obtain relatively accurate examination results. In addition, when a woman suffers from mastitis and has a high risk of breast cysts, she will undergo a puncture to extract the breast fluid.

If a woman has a lump in her breast and the nature of the lump is unclear, she can undergo a breast biopsy to obtain breast tissue and perform a biopsy, which can help determine whether the condition is benign or malignant. In cases where breast cancer is highly suspected, a puncture biopsy after breast puncture can also be used to clarify the condition.

Breast puncture should be performed during the menstrual period. Since women's menstrual period may affect the body's blood coagulation, the puncture needs to be performed during the non-menstrual period. Women should relax and not be too anxious when undergoing breast puncture. You should not do heavy physical work after the puncture. If you have symptoms such as dizziness, fever, and pain, you need to go to the hospital for medical treatment.
