So for underwear, such as bras, in addition to the appearance, it is recommended to buy products from regular manufacturers. In addition to dressing, we need to pay attention to various breast discomforts or pains that occur in daily life. If it is mild, you can refer to the following methods for self-examination, and go to a professional doctor for treatment if there are any signs.

Medical history is a reference material. Medical history such as menstrual history, marital history, previous breast disease history and family history of breast cancer are of great significance for predisposing physical examinations and further examinations. With the improvement of the archival system and the advancement of technology, the medical records of every patient will serve as an important reference for new examinations.

2. Self-test method

The breast is an ectodermal organ that originates from the skin and belongs to the superficial structure of the chest wall. Girls' breasts begin to develop at the age of 12 to 13 and are basically mature at the age of 15 to 17. Although there are differences among different races and ethnic groups, the mammary gland is generally composed of 15 to 20 lobes. Breast hypoplasia is essentially a tissue deficiency, so the treatment should be to increase the breast contents, expand the volume, improve the appearance, and make women show their unique curves and charm.

Check in front of the mirror: Stand in front of the mirror with your hands down and check if your breasts look normal. Are the nipples sunken, the skin wrinkled, swollen, etc.? Is there any discharge when you gently pinch your nipples? Then check the armpits to see if there are swollen lymph nodes. Finally, raise your hands above your head and repeat.

Lie flat for examination: Lie on your back in bed. If you have full breasts, place a small pillow or a folded towel under your left shoulder. Put your left hand behind your head, straighten and put the fingers of your right hand together. Press lightly on the left breast and make small circle massage. At this time, you can imagine the breast as a clock face, and check from the 12 o'clock position in a clockwise direction (you can also use a counterclockwise direction, but the direction must be the same) to the origin, and massage at least 3 circles. Following the above method, use your left hand to examine the right breast.

It can be seen from this that regarding breast issues, the country, including medical and other relevant departments, still needs to pay attention to it, and provide more measures for self-examination of breast pain, including publicity on shape, size, self-examination methods, etc. If conditions permit, it is still better to go to some professional physical examination institutions for examination.
