Can plasma cell mastitis be cured?

Plasma cell mastitis is a type of mammary duct dilatation that is not caused by bacterial infection, but rather by fat accumulation in the ducts, which leads to the ulceration of a large number of plasma cells. It may also be caused by nipple hypoplasia. In recent years, the incidence of this disease among women has gradually increased. Many women are worried that they will not be able to be cured after contracting the disease. So, can plasma cell mastitis be cured? Let's learn about this disease together!

Can plasma cell mastitis be cured?

Plasma cell mastitis can be cured. The condition should be identified first and then targeted treatment should be given. Anti-inflammatory drugs should be used in the acute stage. Since it is not caused by bacterial infection, there is no need to use antibiotics. Traditional Chinese medicine that can reduce swelling, disperse nodules, clear away heat and detoxify can be used, but avoid using too much bitter and cold medicine. The more cold medicine is used, the harder the lump will disappear. In the chronic stage, warm medicine should be used, such as Yanghe Decoction with modifications.

Of course, the condition of some patients with plasma cell mastitis is more serious. In such cases, surgery can be used for treatment, but the timing of surgery is very important. The interictal period, that is, the wound healing period, is the best time for surgery. However, some people think that they don’t need to have surgery after the disease is cured, and wait until redness, swelling, and ulceration occur again before doing it, which delays a long time. If necessary during an attack, you can use Chinese medicine externally to relieve the symptoms of pain, and use cephalosporins intravenously for anti-inflammatory treatment. During ulceration, you should actively change the dressing, or use hanging thread therapy.

If the wound does not heal and you wait for the acute inflammation to subside, surgery will be performed when the wound is most superficial, which will easily lead to infection after the operation. The key to a successful operation is to flip the areola, thoroughly remove the lesions, and clean all wound surfaces. The technical key to the operation is to maintain the perfect appearance, and nipple inversion surgery must be performed.
