I have had galactoceles for two years. Can I have a puncture?

Patient's question:

I have had galactoceles for two years. Can I have the procedure done? Will it recur after the procedure? Will it interfere with my future life? If confirmed, what time is suitable for the procedure? After the procedure, what should I pay attention to in terms of diet? Will there be any postoperative complications?

Doctor's answer:

Before starting, it is first necessary to have an ultrasound to assess the specific condition. If this cyst is left untreated for a long time, it may also recur and worsen. If the needle treatment is no longer effective, surgery would then be the only option. It is best to perform this surgery three days after the menstrual period has ended, as swelling is usually more severe before menstruation, which can interfere with the treatment effect. Moreover, if this condition reoccurs initially, applying cold compresses with a towel and massaging it can help alleviate the issue.
