What is the hard thing on the breast

Patient's question:

Female
21
I am 21 years old today, and I have a hard lump on my breast. I want to ask if it could be due to the current development of my breast?

Doctor's answer:

It is due to breast development and hyperplasia that hard lumps can be felt during palpation, accompanied by spontaneous pain or tenderness. There is no need to worry excessively, as this will naturally disappear after the rapid growth phase of the breasts. If the pain is unbearable, you can use heat therapy to alleviate it.
The occurrence of breast hyperplasia not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal discharge examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
