Painful lump under breast

The graceful figure and full breasts of beautiful women always attract many admiring and admiring eyes. The importance of breasts is not only reflected in body shaping, but its most important function is to provide breast milk for babies, allowing babies to grow healthily under the nourishment of breast milk. Many women are not sensitive enough when wearing underwear. After taking off these cumbersome clothes, they find painful lumps under their breasts. What is going on?

What is the cause of the painful lump under the breast?

Breast lumps that are painful are mostly caused by breast hyperplasia, and some are breast fibroids.

1. The breast lumps caused by breast hyperplasia will cause pain when pressed gently. The lumps are usually on the edge of the breast, usually on one side. When the lumps become larger, they are cystic. When they move to the edge, there is an obvious sense of fluctuation. It has nothing to do with the menstrual cycle. Breast hyperplasia is generally related to endocrine disorders, mental stress, emotional excitement, staying up late, and lack of sleep.

2. Breast fibroids can also cause breast lumps, which usually grow on one or both sides of the breast. The surface skin is smooth, the texture is hard, the boundaries are obvious, and they can be pushed. At the same time, the pain is weak. The occurrence of breast fibroids is related to endocrine hormone imbalance, such as relative or absolute increase in estrogen.

What to do if there is a lump under the breast

If girls who have painful lumps in their breasts cannot confirm whether they have breast hyperplasia or breast fibroids, it is recommended that they go to a regular hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination to avoid delaying the treatment. If it is confirmed to be breast hyperplasia, in addition to taking medical medication, you can also massage the breasts or apply hot compresses with hot towels to promote blood circulation, which can effectively relieve pain and help with treatment.

Breast fibroids are generally benign, and the chance of the patient's condition becoming malignant is less than 1%. Generally, close observation and regular follow-up visits are sufficient, and there is no risk to life. If the fibroids are found to be growing, they should be removed surgically. However, please note that surgery is not suitable during breastfeeding, so a check-up should be done before planning to become pregnant.
