Patient's question:
Sometimes I feel some pain in my breasts, and sometimes it's not very noticeable. My friend said this might be due to fibrocystic breast changes. I know nothing about this condition. What are the symptoms of fibrocystic breast changes?Doctor's answer:
Breast pain can be a cause of fibrocystic breast changes. The primary symptom of fibrocystic breast changes is breast lumps, with breast pain being the basic manifestation. Some people may also experience sore nipples, nipple discharge, bitter mouth, side rib distension, chest tightness, loss of appetite, menstrual disorders, or a variety of systemic symptoms. The main cause of fibrocystic breast changes is hormonal imbalance and endocrine disorders. Many traditional Chinese medicines can be taken for treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine primarily uses herbal formulas that focus on soothing the liver, regulating Qi, cooling blood, and softening and dissolving hard lumps. The recurrence of fibrocystic breast changes severely threatens women's health, and patients need to pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene in daily life.
