In general, general surgery clinics are available in second-tier hospitals, and breast surgery clinics are available in tertiary hospitals.  The population suffering from breast disease can be divided into the following categories: 1, women of childbearing age: adult women know little about breast disease, most people think that breast disease is not only breast enlargement or breast cancer, and some even think that breast pain is caused by inflammation.  2, male breast disease: male breast is generally not developed, but some men will also appear unilateral or bilateral breast pain and lumps.  3, breast disease in breastfeeding women: breast pain, milk stagnation, mastitis often occur in breastfeeding women, and more serious diseases such as breast cancer during breastfeeding, this situation is best to go to general surgery or breast surgery.  4, children’s breast disease: endocrine instability in adolescent children, girls will develop painful hard nodes in the breast, boys will also have some performance symptoms. There are even some obese boys with obvious bulges in the breast area. Most of these conditions will disappear as they grow older.
