Patient's question:
Often feel pain between the breasts and chest. It has been over a year since the previous treatment and its effectiveness:Previously, I had an ultrasound at the hospital, which was diagnosed as breast hyperplasia. The doctor prescribed Modified Xiaoyao Capsules, which had some effect. However, Modified Xiaoyao Capsules were too expensive at the hospital. Later, a friend said that Modified Xiaoyao Pills have the same efficacy as the capsules. I bought several boxes, but the effect was not significant. After taking the pills, I also had some diarrhea. Are their effects the same? The hospital medication is too expensive. Could you please tell me which pharmacies sell Modified Xiaoyao Capsules and if there are any more affordable options?
Doctor's answer:
According to your description, if it's convenient, please consider consulting the Traditional Chinese Medicine department for a follow-up visit. Consider using traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, as it has been found to be quite effective for the symptoms mentioned above, and it is also relatively economical. The drawback is that it requires decocting the medicine, which can be a bit of a hassle.Advice: If you visit a larger pharmacy, such drugs are usually available, so you can check at a big pharmacy, as they generally stock them.
For patients with breast hyperplasia, in addition to medication, it is also important to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment and keeping the private area clean. Finally, it is advised that female patients undergo regular follow-up examinations!
