Patients with chronic mastitis who have formed significant lumps can opt for topical application of Jinhuang San, which can gradually limit the symptoms. In addition, if there is a significant abscess formation, systematic anti-infective treatment should also be given. This is because abscesses can also manifest as localized masses and can be accompanied by tension, and some patients can also manifest as fever. After systematic anti-infective treatment, the inflammatory mass may be surgically excised at an elective stage, either by removing local tissue of the breast or by segmental excision, and after surgery, symptomatic treatment such as infection prevention should be continued to avoid leaving residual cavities to avoid postoperative recurrence. The surgical excision of simple inflammatory masses can be curative, but regular follow-up and observation should be carried out after surgery, with a reasonable diet and away from stimulating foods.
