Patient's question:
I am a 38-year-old woman. Six months ago, I had a thorough examination and was diagnosed with breast hyperplasia. Later, I took the anti-breast lump capsules prescribed by the doctor, which improved the condition. However, in the past two months, I have been experiencing pain in the posterior sides of both armpits and the inner sides of my arms, sometimes radiating to the chest. Additionally, there has been pain in the lateral sides of both inguinal regions, with particularly noticeable soreness behind the knees. I have seen a doctor and taken many traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. The doctor said I have liver qi stagnation, but despite taking so many medications, the pain has not been relieved. In the past two days, I just had a light cough with a dry, itchy throat and occasional coughing above my chest, and it became painful. What could be the reason, and what should I do?Doctor's answer:
In your case, traditional Chinese medicine explains that it is caused by liver qi stagnation, which leads to this condition. It is recommended to implement liver soothing and depression resolving treatment. Additionally, you need to have a few re-examinations of the lymph nodes in the armpits to check for any swelling.Breast hyperplasia is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently.
