Patient's question:
My mother-in-law has had breast hyperplasia for over ten years. When it flares up, it doesn't affect her eating or drinking. She never took it seriously and just took some medicine when it occurred. This spring, her breasts started to ache occasionally. At first, the medicine helped, but later it no longer did. When she went to the hospital for a follow-up check and had an X-ray, the doctor said the results showed that the breast hyperplasia had continued to worsen and had turned into cancer. What should be done if breast hyperplasia continues to worsen into breast cancer?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it would be a good idea to visit a breast specialist for an ultrasound and mammography to clarify the situation. If necessary, a biopsy may need to be performed to determine the next steps. Pay attention to rest and diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, prevent prolonged sitting, adjust your mindset, and maintain a positive attitude. If it is malignant, a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan should be developed after undergoing a full-body examination.
