Breast nodules are very common in life. It can be said that the incidence rate is still very high in recent years. However, the physical condition and even the severity of breast nodules of each female friend are different. Only by protecting and treating according to their specific conditions can we achieve better therapeutic effects and avoid the harm and trouble of the disease. So what is breast nodules with calcification? Calcification of breast hyperplasia is caused by calcium deposition. Regular check-ups are required and symptomatic medication can be used to treat any pain symptoms. Breast calcifications are calcium deposits that can be seen on a mammogram. There are two types of breast calcifications: macrocalcifications and microcalcifications. Macrocalcifications are usually degenerative changes inside the breast. They are usually caused by previous injury, inflammation, or aging of the breast arteries and are not usually related to cancer. Microcalcifications are specks of calcium that may be found at sites of rapidly disintegrating cells. These remnants left behind by rapidly decomposing cells can appear as microcalcifications. When they appear in large groups, it indicates the possibility of small tumors. Since there is no clear understanding of the mechanism and cause of breast hyperplasia, the current treatment is basically symptomatic. Some patients may experience spontaneous remission several months to 1 to 2 years after onset and usually do not require treatment. For patients with more obvious symptoms and more extensive lesions, wearing a bra to support the breasts or using 5% potassium iodide can relieve the symptoms. In addition, there is hormone therapy. Some people use androgens to treat this disease to inhibit the effects of estrogen, soften nodules, and relieve symptoms; but this treatment may aggravate the imbalance of hormones in the human body and is not suitable for routine use. It should only be considered when the symptoms are severe and affect normal work and life. During the follow-up observation of the patient, if a lump is found that grows rapidly or becomes hard in a short period of time, the possibility of cancer should be highly suspected. If necessary, a biopsy or simple resection of the affected breast should be performed. If cancer cells are found in the frozen section during the operation, the patient should be treated as breast cancer. From the above, you have a clear idea of what breast nodules with calcification are. In normal times, you still need to take various diseases seriously and protect your own health and safety. You cannot wait until the disease worsens to realize the seriousness of the problem. It is crucial to make treatment plans and preparations as soon as possible. |
