Is surgery necessary for breast hyperplasia?

Is surgery necessary for breast hyperplasia? If people are under long-term mental stress or take health supplements containing estrogen, it is easy to cause breast hyperplasia. The main symptom of breast hyperplasia is pain, so when the disease occurs, many patients will find it unbearable and want to treat it through surgery. However, because surgery also has certain risks, it is not recommended for patients whose symptoms are not particularly serious.

If breast hyperplasia is not too serious, it can be treated through massage or taking Chinese medicine. If you haven't given birth to a child yet, breastfeeding after giving birth can actually resolve the hyperplasia. However, it will be very painful at the beginning of breastfeeding because of the blockage of meridians caused by the hyperplasia, so you should ask a lactation therapist to massage and unblock the meridians. If the condition is serious, surgery or other treatments may be necessary because it may turn into a tumor.

Massage therapy for breast hyperplasia

When breast hyperplasia occurs, massage can be used as an auxiliary treatment to effectively alleviate the condition. However, experts point out that you should pay attention to the direction, strength, sequence, and frequency of massage. Only correct massage can achieve the real therapeutic purpose. Here are some massage methods for treating breast hyperplasia for patients’ reference:

1. Pushing and stroking method: Specific steps: The patient sits or lies on his side to fully expose his chest. First, sprinkle some talcum powder or apply a little paraffin oil on the affected breast, and then use the palms of both hands to gently push and stroke along the breast along the milk duct toward the nipple 50 to 100 times.

2. Kneading method: Specific steps: Use the hypothenar or thenar eminence on the palm of your hand to apply force to the affected area, and gently knead the red, swollen and painful areas. Knead the lumps repeatedly for several times until the lumps become soft.

3. Kneading, pinching and holding method: Specific method: Use the five fingers of your right hand to grab the breast on the affected side and apply kneading techniques, grabbing and releasing, and repeat the technique 10 to 15 times. Use your left hand to gently pull the nipple several times to expand the milk ducts in the nipple.

4. Oscillation method: The specific method is to use the hypothenar part of the right hand to push from the swelling of the breast along the base of the breast toward the nipple with high-speed oscillation, and repeat 3 to 5 times. The effect is better when a slight warm sensation appears locally.
