Patient's question:
I feel uncomfortable with my breasts. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found that there are issues with my breasts. The second ultrasound of the breasts showed no obvious mass echoes and no abnormal blood signals. I want to understand the difference between breast hyperplasia and breast nodules, as well as the condition of the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
A breast nodule is not a disease. Normal women have them. However, breast hyperplasia is different. Breast hyperplasia usually affects women, including some who may also experience swelling, pain, and other symptoms. Fibrosis is also divided into typical fibrosis and atypical hyperplasia. Typical fibrosis is mostly benign fibrosis. Breast nodules are degenerative inflammation of the breast tissue ducts and lobules, along with progressive growth of connective tissue. Modern medicine believes that age, diet, external environment of human life, and generational inheritance factors are the main causes of breast disease. Types include: 1. Mastalgia, 2. Lobular hyperplasia, 3. Fibroadenoma or papilloma, 4. Fibrocystic fibrosis or. Surgical treatment is available.
