Xi'an Cailove Gynecological Hospital Reminder: Breast hyperplasia accounts for more than 75% of all breast diseases, and it is the most common type of breast disease, which can occur in women of any age after puberty.
Some women often feel that their breasts are swollen and accompanied by dull pain. Because there are no other discomforts, they usually do not seek medical attention. Some of them even naively believe that this can enhance the feminine figure beauty. However, unknown to them, swelling and dull pain may be the initial symptoms of breast hyperplasia. Delayed treatment of breast hyperplasia may even lead to pathological changes.
The initial signs of breast hyperplasia are mainly manifested as breast lumps and breast pain. About 80% of patients experience breast pain, mostly bilateral but sometimes unilateral. The nature of the pain includes distension pain, pricking pain, shooting pain, dull pain, or palpation pain. The manifestation of breast pain is often unstable and may worsen before menstruation. It also tends to worsen with emotional changes, fatigue, or weather changes. Breast lumps are the main basis for diagnosing breast diseases, and they are mostly multiple, varying in size, with a hard or firm texture. The lumps are not adhered to the skin, and the surface of the lump is often not smooth, feeling granular upon touch. In addition to the above symptoms, some patients may experience nipple itching, discharge, bitter mouth, rib distension, chest tightness, poor appetite, menstrual disorders, and other systemic symptoms.
The following preventive and therapeutic measures can be taken for breast hyperplasia:
1. Maintain emotional stability and reduce mental stimulation. According to statistics, 85% of patients had adverse emotional changes before the onset of the disease. Mental stimulation can lead to elevated levels of estrogen in the body and endocrine disorders.
2. Pay attention to balancing work and rest. Units concentrated with intellectuals have a higher incidence rate during surveys. Based on this point, intellectual women should especially pay attention to balancing work and rest. Additionally, persisting in breastfeeding can reduce the incidence of the disease because breastfeeding can lower the incidence of breast hyperplasia and also reduce the number of abortions, thereby lowering the incidence.
3. Medication treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is currently the main treatment method, and clinical evidence shows that traditional Chinese medicine treatment has good effects.
4. Surgery. For breast hyperplasia, local excision surgery cannot achieve the purpose of treatment. It is more about excluding malignant breast lesions. When the lump is relatively hard and difficult to differentiate from breast cancer, surgical treatment is necessary for a definitive diagnosis.
