A girl who is over eight years old has lumps in her breasts, what is the situation?

Patient's question:

A girl over the age of eight has lumps in her breasts

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this does not rule out the possibility of breast hyperplasia. It is generally caused by increased estrogen and decreased progesterone. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that breast hyperplasia is primarily due to emotional distress, impaired normal liver Qi flow leading to Qi stagnation, blood stasis, and phlegm coagulation, as well as imbalanced Chong and Ren meridians. It is recommended to have a breast examination at a hospital.
Children have weaker immune systems, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery conditions. For parents, it is important not to panic and should promptly take their children to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment. Additionally, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medication should be administered under the guidance of a doctor.
