Patient's question:
My son is 6 years old. The other day, I noticed that his left nipple was red and swollen. When touched, there was a hard lump, but it didn't hurt when not touched. I also saw a small bump on the red area that looked like a boil.Doctor's answer:
Hello! This condition is caused by inflammation and requires anti-inflammatory treatment. I recommend that you go to the nearest hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound, but it is generally not a serious issue. Without affecting your normal life, you cannot use treatment. If you can't tolerate it, you can go to the hospital for a check-up. Rest and avoid overexertion, avoid spicy and irritating foods, apply local heat, massage, and physical therapy. If necessary, surgical treatment may be required.
