1. The difference between mastopathy and breast cancer


It’s not always true that you have breast cancer if you find a lamp in your breast, because the symptoms of mastopathy and breast cancer is similar.

 

Mastopathy is the most common disease of lactating gland.

It’s not malignancy, so not too serious.

Therefore, you can think that it’s like something in lactating gland has changed.

 

In fact, the cause of mastopathy has not been figured out, but it is said that it is due to hypersecretion of estrogen, a female hormone.

 

Women around 35 to 45 years old, the age that the secretion of female hormone tends to be disturbed, are most likely to have mastopathy.

The major symptoms of mastopathy are, pressure on breast, lump, itch, and secretion from papilla of breast.

One of the major characteristics of mastopathy is that you have a pain on a breast when you push it.

The pain goes stronger before a period and it goes weaker when a period starts.

The part of the breasts the symptoms usually appear is the upper half of breasts, which stems from swollen lymph glands under arms.

Some women have serious pains on their shoulders, depending on the state of lymph glands.

 

Relative to these symptoms, in most cases patients of breast cancer don’t have itch and pain.

So you cannot confidently say that you have breast cancer when you find a lump around your breasts.

You need to have breast cancer screening as soon as possible, and check whether you have cancer cells or not.

When you find blood in secretion from papilla of breast, go to see a gynecologist or an oncologist.

Then, how the pain from mastopathy should be treated?

 

In fact, when you got a diagnosis of mastopathy but you don’t have any pain, you don’t need to have a treatment for it.

Only if you have a strong pain and it interferes with everyday activities, a doctor may prescribe a painkiller or oriental medicine for mastopathy.

 

When the prescribed medicine doesn’t make you better, your pain may come from mastitis, and need a detailed examination.

And you also may need to rethink and change lifestyle habits, such as, to regulate one’s life, eat regularly, not to get stressed out, refrain from taking too much oil and caffeine, to eat more seaweeds, and excise regularly.

Changing some lifestyle habits not only decreases the pain but also prevents you from having mastitis or mastopathy.
