Patient's question:
I've been feeling uncomfortable with my breasts recently, sometimes experiencing a sense of fullness and pain. There are lumps in my breasts, so I went to the hospital for a check-up. They said I have hyperplasia of the breast lobules. Now I'm taking the medication prescribed by the doctor, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm quite worried.Doctor's answer:
Nodular hyperplasia of the breast is usually accompanied by breast obstruction and lumps, which affects the delivery of medication efficacy. Therefore, relying on oral medication to treat nodular hyperplasia is often ineffective and can lead to recurrence. In contrast, topical application of traditional Chinese medicine can avoid such issues, as this method can achieve a thorough treatment effect.General Western medicine treatments typically involve taking anti-inflammatory drugs, which cannot fundamentally eliminate the condition. If medication is ineffective, surgery is often recommended.
