There is an abscess on the breast

Now many people have begun to consult about breast issues, because breasts are a key secondary sexual characteristic of human beings. If there is a problem with the breasts, the internal organs of the human body will also be affected. When a woman finds a pus-filled lump in her breast, it cannot be ruled out that it is caused by mastitis, which may also be related to cysts and fibroids.

There are 15-20 glandular lobes in it, and each lobe is divided into many lobules. Each gland lobe has a separate duct (milk duct), which is arranged radially with the nipple as the center. The mammary gland is a target organ for many endocrine glands and changes with the menstrual cycle. Breast lumps are a common disease in women. Common breast lumps include chronic cystic hyperplasia and fibroadenoma. Occasional lesions include mastitis, breast abscess, and malignant tumors. For premenopausal women, most breast lumps are benign. Some patients think that they can ignore them. This view is incorrect because benign breast lumps also have a certain possibility of malignancy, and once they become malignant, they may seriously affect their survival rate. Therefore, if you find a lump in your breast, you should go to the hospital for examination and ask the doctor for diagnosis in time.

Classification of Breast Masses

Most of the lumps that premenopausal women suffer from are cystic breast hyperplasia and fibroadenomas, which are mostly caused by hormonal fluctuations.

1. Cystic hyperplasia of the breast, the prominent manifestations of which are breast pain and lumps, which are cyclical in some patients and related to the menstrual cycle;

2. Breast fibroadenomas are caused by the proliferation of connective tissue. They have clear boundaries with surrounding tissues and can move freely. They are hard but not as hard as stone. Fibroadenomas are very common in young women and should be surgically removed once discovered, but they may recur.

3. Intraductal papilloma is usually characterized by bloody nipple discharge. The lump is usually small and soft. A small nodule with a diameter of several millimeters can be palpated in the areola area. It is usually round, soft, and movable. Gently pressing the lump often causes bloody fluid to flow out of the nipple.

4. Cancer tumors are generally hard in texture, with a rough surface, unclear boundaries from the surrounding areas, and are adhered and difficult to move.

If you find a new lump in your breast, you should seek medical attention immediately. Generally, we will use color ultrasound or mammography and other technical diagnosis methods after a strict physical examination, and take timely treatment based on the diagnosis. For a small number of small benign breast lumps, treatment may not be required for the time being, but it is necessary to conduct self-examination and ask a doctor to examine the lumps in time to detect changes in the lumps in time.
