What is the condition of a hard lump in the left breast?

Patient's question:

Lump in the left breast, a bit painful when touched, haven't seen a doctor yet

Doctor's answer:

Breast hyperplasia or fibroadenoma can generally be treated with Guizhi Fuling pills or Xiaojin pills. Psychological treatment is very important. The harm of breast hyperplasia to a person is primarily psychological damage. Due to a lack of correct understanding of this disease, excessive tension, stimulation, worry, and sadness can lead to neurosis, which worsens endocrine disorders and exacerbates the condition. Therefore, it is essential to eliminate various adverse psychological stimuli. People with poor psychological resilience should pay more attention to reducing anger, maintaining emotional stability, and keeping a cheerful and lively mood to promote the relief or regression of breast hyperplasia. In severe cases, surgical resection may be considered.
