What are the symptoms of breast fibroids?

Breast fibrosis is a type of breast hyperplasia. The occurrence of this disease is related to women's long-term use of health products and contraceptives containing estrogen. However, no matter what the cause of breast fibrosis is, it is hoped that patients can clearly identify the clinical symptoms of the disease and detect breast fibrosis in time, so as to treat the disease as soon as possible, so that the disease can be completely cured. What are the specific symptoms of breast fibroids?

Fibrocystic breast disease is a type of breast proliferative changes with complex and diverse morphology. It is also known as fibrocystic disease, cystic breast disease, cystic hyperplasia, breast dysplasia, cystic breast disease, etc. The early stage of breast fibroma is mainly characterized by breast pain, also known as mastalgia; the middle stage is mainly characterized by lobular and terminal duct hyperplasia and fibroplasia, called breast adenosis. The early stage of this stage is lobular hyperplasia, and the late stage is sclerosing adenosis; the late stage of breast fibroma is mainly characterized by cysts, which is called breast cystic disease. Ultrasound examination of breast fibroids shows local glandular thickening, uneven low-echo areas, and anechoic cysts.

Breast fibrosis is more common in young and middle-aged women, especially those of childbearing age. Most patients have no obvious symptoms, and a few patients have periodic pain in the early stages. Some patients may experience serous or bloody nipple discharge, as well as single or multiple lumps or a mass sensation in one or both breasts.

The breast tissue is often thickened and feels lumpy or nodular in the upper outer quadrant of the breast. It is tough in texture, has unclear boundaries with surrounding glands, is relatively fixed, and is painless or accompanied by mild tenderness. However, it may sometimes form a lump with clearer boundaries. This disease can be easily confused with breast cancer in terms of physical signs, so care must be taken to differentiate them.

After understanding the symptoms of breast fibroadenoma, we would like to remind all patients that if the symptoms are severe, it is best to undergo surgery for treatment. During the treatment, you should also pay attention to a light diet and keep a good mood. In addition, you need to have regular follow-up visits after the surgery to avoid the recurrence of breast fibroadenoma symptoms.
