Patient's question:
Why do breasts get swollen and painful?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally speaking, the phenomenon of breast tenderness and pain during menstruation is mainly related to emotional factors and liver qi stagnation. Treatment should focus on soothing the liver, regulating qi, and resolving stagnation, which can be achieved through traditional Chinese medicine.Before menstruation, some girls may experience a series of symptoms, such as fatigue, irritability, depression, drowsiness, or even crying or anger for no reason. In severe cases, they may become unresponsive to parents and friends, become reclusive, and even refuse to get out of bed. These symptoms are often accompanied by breast tenderness, a sense of fullness in the lower abdomen, and constipation, though usually only one to two of these symptoms appear in an individual.
It is recommended to relax, eat more fruits and vegetables, engage in appropriate exercise, maintain regular bowel movements, and take good care of yourself during the premenstrual period. I hope my answer is helpful to you! Wishing you good health!
