How to Treat Breast Fibroadenoma in Teenage Girls

Patient: I have three tumors in my left breast: a small one on the top near the areola, two on the bottom at the edge of the breast, and two on the inside together in the shape of a dumbbell, with a tingling and swelling sensation when pressed. Treatment: Take Xiaojin pill, drink some Chinese herbal medicine, no surgery Medical history: None. Zong Xiangyun, Breast Surgery Department, Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital: First of all, I don’t recommend you to take any medicine, considering your age and examination. Already formed mammary fibroadenoma is difficult to remove by medication, but a lump less than 3cm can be observed without any treatment if it grows slowly. If the lump increases in size or if you experience significant symptoms, surgical removal may be considered. The so-called recurrence is actually multiple fibroadenomas growing in different parts of the breast at different times. If you are planning to operate, minimally invasive surgery is more appropriate considering the problem of marriage and breastfeeding, especially for lumps in the central region of the breast, but how to operate on lumps in the marginal area has little impact. Zong Xiangyun, Breast Surgery Department, Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital: In addition, the bra should be soft and loose fitting.
