Breast cancer is not necessarily cancer

Do you find a lump on your chest, feel pain, or see a nipple discharge? But thoracic experts at the Taussig Cancer Clinics (Cleveland, USA) say this is not necessarily a cancer symptom.

Soft cysts

Symptoms: Soft, smooth, round mass (like a grape) can move in a narrow range when you press on it and can cause pain when you touch it hard; may be small or larger. These can be: Cysts, or small bags filled with fluids. Cause: The hormones in the body change from time to time.

About 30% of women aged 35 to 50 have these signs. We need to: Check by ultrasound to see if it is a liquid or solid (and possibly a cancer). Your doctor will give you medicine to reduce the pain and impact of the tumor.

Liquid

Symptoms: Liquid flows out through the nipple. Maybe it's the secretion of breast milk. The cause of this symptom may be the thyroid or pituitary gland. Other causes can be clearly attributed to your pregnancy, birth control pills, or over-stimulated nipples.

When you have these symptoms, you need to: tell your doctor; If it is not caused by the endocrine glands, then it can be controlled with medication.

Soft block

Symptoms: the soft tumor is about 1 to 4 inches long, appears in one part or the whole of the pre-menopausal chest. It may be due to changes in connective tissue cells (fiber cells). Cause: the rise of estrogen and progesterone, hormones can thicken breast tissue.

This condition occurs in more than 50% of women and continues until menopause.

According to experts, you should use acetaminophen or ibuprophen to relieve pain, or wear a suitable bra. It is also necessary to limit the amount of fat and caffeine during meals. Tell your doctor if the symptoms continue.

U hard

Symptoms: the tumor is hard, round, easily identifiable (can be very small or about 5 inches in size) moving in circles under the skin without causing pain. That may be a benign tumor. Cause: the amount of hormones in the body changes. These benign tumors are not as common as cysts, but they usually occur in women between the ages of 20 and 30.

When you see signs of benign tumors, see your doctor and have a chest X-ray. According to the latest research, it is an unimportant organization in the body but you still need to consult your doctor. If the tumor is quite large, surgery is needed to remove it.

Hard block

Symptoms: A solid, hard mass with spines or unusual size. Usually do not move or translate when moving it. It may be tumor expression of cancer.

Cause: No one knows that people have cancer for any reason. Age and family genes are the main factor, and some studies suggest that drinking two glasses of alcohol a day increases the risk of cancer by 10%.

You should have a chest X-ray.
