Patient's question:
Recently, my breasts have been slightly swollen and a bit painful. In addition to the recurrence of this issue in my breasts, there has also been a recurrence of bloating in my lower abdomen. Previously, before my menstrual period, my breasts would always become swollen and painful. However, my period has just ended for a week, and I'm still experiencing breast tenderness and abdominal bloating. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Breast tenderness accompanied by a sense of lower abdominal discomfort. Most likely, it could be due to breast hyperplasia caused by endocrine disorders in recent weeks. It is also possible to rule out the possibility of menopausal pain or pelvic inflammatory disease. Specific diagnosis requires medical examination. In daily life, you can also take some herbs that promote liver health, qi flow, and blood circulation. Please follow the doctor's advice on medication, and you can also gently massage the area.
