Patient's question:
This morning when I went to bed, I noticed that the part of my pajama top near my nipple was wet. I lifted the fabric to take a look, and it seemed like my nipple was leaking fluid. I squeezed it, and some liquid came out. So I wanted to ask the doctor, what is the condition called when nipple discharge occurs?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned is the discovery of nipple discharge. First, it is relatively common, usually seen in conditions like breast hyperplasia and fibroadenomas, and in a small number of cases, it could also be breast cancer. Therefore, it is recommended to visit a hospital for a detailed breast ultrasound examination. If it is breast hyperplasia or a fibroadenoma, can generally be taken orally for treatment. It is advised to regularly check in with the hospital for follow-up examinations.
