What examination should mammary gland hyperplasia do

summary

The symptoms of hyperplasia of mammary glands include long course of disease, slow development, sometimes nipple discharge, etc. The nodules of different sizes in the breast are actually cystic dilated large and small mammary ducts. Nipple discharge comes from these cysts, which are yellow green, brown or bloody, and occasionally colorless serous. Now I'd like to introduce to you what examination should be done for hyperplasia of mammary glands.

What examination should mammary gland hyperplasia do

First: according to the above clinical manifestations and signs, the diagnosis of this disease is not difficult, but it should be noted that a small number of patients (about 2-3%) can have malignant transformation. Therefore, the suspicious patients should pay attention to follow-up observation, generally every three months, especially for unilateral and limited lesions.

Second: breast examination should first observe the development of the breast, whether the breasts on both sides are symmetrical, whether the size is similar, whether the nipples on both sides are at the same level, whether the nipples have retraction depression; whether the nipples and areola have erosion, how the breast skin color is, whether there is edema and orange peel like change, whether there are inflammatory manifestations such as redness and swelling, whether the superficial veins in the breast area are angry, etc.

Third: from the sitting position, any inverted nipple, sunken skin and abnormal structure and shape are the clues of breast cancer. If the patient claps his hands on the head to contract the pectoral muscle, the above signs will appear. When the woman is in the sitting position, it is convenient to check the supraclavicular, infraclavicular and axillary lymph nodes. Finally, she needs to sit for palpation, and touch the area under the nipple with close fingers.

The increase of soybean food is beneficial to breast health, which also belongs to the diet of breast hyperplasia. Because soy and soy processed foods contain isoflavones, which can lower estrogen levels in women's bodies and reduce breast discomfort. If you eat two meals a day containing soy foods, such as tofu, soy milk, etc., will be very beneficial to breast health.
