Minimally invasive surgery is less painful than traditional surgery, but pain is inevitable. Patients with a more obvious perception of pain will feel pain. This is normal and there is no need to worry too much. Just pay attention to good medical care.

Postoperative pain is quite common. As time goes by and the wound heals, the pain will subside in about a week. If the wound healing is delayed, the pain will also be prolonged. It is recommended to take antiviral drugs to prevent infection after surgery and pay attention to disinfecting the local wound. If the pain persists after a week, you should consult a doctor to check if there are other complications.

Patients with breast fibroids should pay attention to their diet after surgery. They are forbidden to eat raw onions, ginger, garlic, sow meat, winter melon, alcohol, as well as spicy, fried, greasy, fatty, sweet, old, moldy foods that help fire and generate phlegm and hinder the spleen.

Minimally invasive surgery for breast fibroids is a very convenient, fast and effective new treatment method, but you still need to pay attention to good medical care and insist on follow-up visits after the operation.

How to prevent breast fibroids symptoms

How to prevent breast fibroids? Breast fibroids are the most common type of malignant breast tumors, accounting for about 3/4. The age of onset is mostly between 18 and 40 years old, and it is more common in young women around 20 years old. More than 60% of breast fibroid patients are under 30 years old, and it rarely occurs in postmenopausal women. The cause of breast fibroids is still unclear at this stage. It is generally believed to be related to excessive stimulation of estrogen or excessive sensitivity of breast tissue to the effects of estrogen. Therefore, breast fibroids are more common in young women with abundant ovaries but disordered ovarian regulation. Some patients are accompanied by irregular menstruation or primary infertility.

Breast fibroids mostly occur on the outer upper side of the breast. Breast fibroid tumors are generally independent, and about 13% are multiple on one side or on both sides. Generally, the tumor has clear boundaries, is movable, hard, and has a ring or oval shape. The diameter is generally around 1.3cm, and is close to 10-20cm. The tumor grows slowly and is therefore sometimes called diffuse fibroid breast tumor. Only 14% of patients experienced mild pain, paroxysmal pain or occasional pain, and most were painless. During the menstrual period, some patients with breast fibroids will experience swelling, dull pain, and dull pain, and very few patients will experience needle-like pain.

The best way to treat breast fibroids is surgical removal. It can usually be cured in one go and will not affect breastfeeding or breast appearance. It is generally believed that surgery should be performed before marriage or before pregnancy, because the high level of estrogen in the body during pregnancy can stimulate tumor growth. Breast fibroids are benign tumors and rarely recur after surgical removal. If the tumor recurs after surgery, it should be regarded as a multiple tumor and not a recurrence. This is also something we should pay attention to in the prevention of breast fibroids.
