Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Recently, when I was taking a shower, I felt breast tenderness and pain, but I don't have any other symptoms. I'm very scared that I might have breast cancer. I haven't had time to go to the hospital for a check-up these past few days, so I wanted to consult first about what symptoms breast pain might be.
Doctor's answer:
It could be galactorrhea-related breast pain, which generally does not require treatment and can be managed by maintaining a light diet before menstruation. It could also be proliferative breast pain: proliferative breast pain can radiate to the armpits and shoulder blades, and palpation of the breast may reveal irregular, movable lumps of varying sizes. It is also influenced by menstruation and emotions. This type of breast pain is caused by metabolic disorders, accumulation of metabolic waste, and stagnation of qi and blood. Medications that promote blood circulation, resolve stagnation, and regulate endocrine functions can be taken.
