Breast cysts are breast cysts. Generally speaking, the consequences of not treating breast cysts are not generalizable and need to be judged on a case-by-case basis. If the size of the cyst is small and considered benign, then it can be observed for the time being and the consequences will not be serious; if the size of the cyst is large or considered malignant, the consequences will be more serious if it is left untreated.
Breast cysts are round or oval, fluid-containing, well-defined, cystic bumps that form in the breast. The condition usually occurs in women between the ages of 35 and 50. Some studies have shown that the prevalence of the condition is around 5%.
Generally speaking, if the cyst is small and there is no pain or swelling, it is considered to be benign and should be left untreated for the time being. However, if the cysts are large, accompanied by pain, swelling or malignant, timely treatment is needed to avoid delay.
It is recommended that patients suffering from breast cysts should consult a doctor in a timely manner and be treated accordingly under the guidance of the doctor.
