Compaction in the chest - not necessarily a malignant tumor

Most women, paying attention to the condition of the breast, usually mean its size. But it is important not to forget about the diseases that can develop as a result of unhealthy lifestyles, poor ecology, improper care and other factors that increase the likelihood of developing breast cancer.

It is known that a tumor can appear in women of any age. The found tightness in the chest almost all causes panic and fear, but it should be noted that most of these tumors are not malignant. Nevertheless, do not postpone the visit to a specialist (oncologist or mammologist), who can accurately diagnose the disease and correctly prescribe the appropriate treatment, which will help to avoid complications in the future.

Sealing in the chest in the form of peas, cones, knots or lumps may appear for many reasons:

· It can be breastfeeding, when in the milk ducts stagnation is created due to incomplete or irregular emptying of the breast.

· The cause may be a cyst of the breast, the appearance of which is usually provoked by hormonal imbalance. It is a benign formation in the form of a fluid-filled cavity. With multiple small formations, conservative treatment is prescribed, if the size of the cyst is large - resort to puncture with pumping.

· Fatty necrosis that occurs in the mammary gland due to injuries (injuries) of small vessels, resulting in a violation of blood supply and, as a result, necrosis in the place of damage to adipose tissue.

· Condensation in the chest can form from the accumulation of pus (abscess) in the tissues of the breast. It is accompanied, usually, by fever, headache, chills, general malaise. In the place of his dislocation, there is a strong discomfort, the chest is hot and "bursts". Treatment of acute abscesses is surgical: it is opened, emptied and drained.

· The adenoma of the mammary gland is also manifested by the globular seal. It is a benign, rather mobile tumor that rarely degenerates into a malignant formation. Often resolves itself, without external interference.

Lipoma is a benign tumor. Movable to the touch, the formation of a rounded shape. Itself does not absorb, it is subject to surgical removal.

· Breast cancer is already a malignant form of the tumor. Usually it is painless, its surface is tuberous, dense, the mobility is limited. In the education zone, the skin looks like an orange peel. From the nipples may be spotting. Treatment of the disease, most often, combined.

Sealing under the chest or in the chest is a serious enough reason not to delay the visit to the doctor. The risk of encountering such a problem exists for every woman, and with age, it increases many times. The sad statistics say that the number of breast cancers is growing and one of the reasons for this is insufficient or incorrect information about this disease.

For the prevention of it is desirable to conduct a monthly breast self-examination. This simple procedure consists in careful study of the structure, shapes and shape of the breast in front of the mirror. In the prone position, you should gently feel your chest for the presence of nodules, seals and other irregularities. This will help to protect you from serious diseases.

The pain under the breast can testify about the diseases of various organs. Under the left breast are the stomach, spleen, pancreas, the left part of the diaphragm. Under the right - the liver, part of the intestine, the right side of the diaphragm, the gallbladder, so that pain can provoke injuries or diseases of these organs.

Condensation in the chest is not a sentence! Causes, as mentioned above, there may be different factors and therefore a lot of treatment methods. It is important to turn to specialists in time and not to engage in self-medication.
