Patient's question:
A movable lump in the breast for about 5 years, occasional pain, unbearable pain these days. No previous examination or treatment. What category does this belong to, how is the best treatment, and is surgical treatment necessary?Follow-up question: Can medication be used for this?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it is likely to be mammary hyperplasia or breast nodules, both of which are benign conditions and pose no harm to the body. It is recommended to have a breast ultrasound examination at the hospital. The ultrasound can classify breast masses. Generally, categories 1 and 2 are classified as mammary hyperplasia, category 3 as breast nodules or cysts, and categories 4 and 5 are suspected of breast cancer. The treatment methods are completely different.
