Can breast tenderness be treated with medication?

Patient's question:

At the end of April, I experienced breast tenderness in both breasts. In mid-May, the pain returned. After a thorough examination, it was diagnosed as hyperplasia of the breast tissue. I took Xiao Jin Wan, and after another careful examination, it was diagnosed as a breast tumor. A week later, the doctor recommended surgery. I am wondering if it is possible to avoid surgery and use medication instead.

Doctor's answer:

Fibroadenoma, also known as breast cystic fibrosis, is characterized by breast pain, which may also include lumps or nodules. The pain tends to be more severe before menstruation and improves or disappears after menstruation, with even the lumps and nodules shrinking. In your case, since there is a lump, surgery is necessary. Over time, this lump may change, so early surgery is recommended. After the surgery, a thorough pathological examination should be conducted. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
