This disease is usually found through imaging examination, self-examination or doctor's physical examination. After it is determined that it belongs to benign breast disease, the general purpose of treatment is to relieve symptoms, educate patients and reduce anxiety.
Only some of these breast diseases, such as atypical hyperplasia, may increase the risk of breast cancer in the future. Patients should actively carry out recommended screening programs and some treatments to reduce risks.
But these atypical hyperplasia are only signs of breast cancer risk, not precancerous lesions, so you don't have to be too nervous when you hear atypical hyperplasia.
Benign breast masses can be painless or accompanied by pain. Histologically, it can be divided into three types: non-proliferative diseases, atypical proliferative diseases and atypical hyperplasia; Its classification is based on the degree and atypia of cell proliferation.
Among them, breast cyst is the most common non-proliferative breast lesion and one of the most common breast masses. It usually occurs 6 ~ 12 months after breast-feeding. It is a round cyst with good activity, full milk and little infection.
Other benign breast masses include common mild hyperplasia, common ductal hyperplasia, intraductal papilloma, simple fibroadenoma and breast infection. The names of diseases are dazzling and need to be diagnosed by specialists.
After discovering breast hyperplasia and considering benign breast mass, the most important thing is to evaluate this mass and determine whether it is malignant.
1, self-check
Although self-examination can't replace the doctor's examination, it's also important to give yourself some tips in time. Mainly check the skin on the surface of the mass for changes and nipple drainage. Skin changes include erythema and skin swelling, whether there are orange peel-like changes, but also check the size of the lump, whether there is tenderness, the hardness and mobility of the lump, and whether there is lymph node enlargement in the armpit, clavicle and subclavian area.
Step 2 see a doctor
Breast hyperplasia or breast lump, although generally considered as a gynecological problem, should be solved by general surgery. Some hospitals have breast specialties, so it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for treatment.
Step 3 delete
If it is a breast fibroma, it can be removed under local anesthesia, but it is often easy to recur.
4. Symptomatic treatment
The application of acetaminophen or other antipyretic and analgesic drugs, as well as the use of sports protective bra to avoid trauma, can alleviate the pain symptoms caused by fibrocystic lesions, and individual taking vitamin E may be effective.
5. Don't trust those who advertise that a pair of Chinese medicine can cure it. If you give medicine to others without formal examination, there is no doubt that it may be for your wallet.
