What are the characteristics of lactational galactoceles?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What are the characteristics of breast milk cysts during lactation?

Doctor's answer:

Galactoceles can cause significant pain, redness, and swelling. Light pressure will intensify the pain, and it may also be accompanied by swollen axillary lymph nodes. If these symptoms are present, it is necessary to seek further medical examination at the hospital. If the examination confirms such conditions, anti-inflammatory treatment should be considered first, and in some cases, incisional treatment may be required. Otherwise, there is a risk of recurrence and transmission. If a child consumes milk from such a condition, it can easily lead to conditions like intestinal inflammation, nausea, and vomiting.
