Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed some lumps in my breasts that are painless and itchy. I can feel them while taking a shower. I've had these lumps for a few months now, and recently they've grown a little bit. I'm not at ease, so I went to the hospital for a check-up and was told it's a fibroadenoma. I want to ask, what should I do about fibroadenomas?Doctor's answer:
Hello, perform monthly breast self-examinations and have professional check-ups annually. Generally, the best time for examination is one to two weeks after your menstrual period. If you notice lumps in the breast, localized skin changes or nipple inversion, or swollen axillary lymph nodes, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. Maintain regular exercise. Exercise not only contributes to breast health but also reduces the incidence of breast diseases.
