I have a lump in my breast and it hurts, what's going on?

The breast is a very important part of the female body, and the health of the breast will directly affect the health of women. In daily life, we must pay more attention to any problems with our breasts. Many women also have lumps in their breasts and are accompanied by pain.

Let's find out today what causes lumps and pain in the breast?

1. The first thing to consider is whether mastitis has occurred. Its occurrence will cause women to have severe breast pain before menstruation, which will be relieved or disappear after the menstrual period. If a woman who is breastfeeding has lumps and pain in the breast, it is likely caused by blocked milk ducts. If not properly treated, it may turn into mastitis.

2. There are also many breast diseases that can cause breast lumps, such as breast hyperplasia. The lumps caused by breast hyperplasia can occur in any part of the breast and may be multiple or single. There are also many women suffering from breast fibroadenosis, which causes pain even when pressed gently, and the pain is aggravated during menstruation.

Nowadays, many women suffer from breast diseases. In the early stages, the symptoms are not obvious, which causes women to ignore this problem. If a lump appears in the breast accompanied by pain, you should be alert and check whether there is cancer and find out what the problem is. During the inspection process, you need to know whether the lump has changed in size, whether it is painful, and whether it feels irregular. The best way is to use a hot towel to gently massage.

In daily life, you should also pay attention to protecting your breasts. There are two things you need to pay attention to.

1. Extrusion molding is strictly prohibited

When the breasts are squeezed by external force, they will cause great disadvantages. One of them is that the soft tissue inside the breasts will be damaged, leading to breast hyperplasia. It is also said that work pressure and external changes will cause certain changes, which will cause problems such as sagging breasts. It is best for women to maintain a correct sleeping posture. Sleeping on the side for a long time will easily squeeze the breasts and cause imbalance in breast development.

2. No need to wear inappropriate underwear

The most important measure to protect breasts as soon as possible is to wear suitable underwear. You must not take chances in these aspects. If the underwear you wear is uncomfortable, you need to adjust it in time. The straps must fit properly during the entire wearing process.
