About Breast Lumps

Breast lumps are localized swellings or masses within the breast tissue, which may be benign, such as cysts or fibroadenomas, or malignant. They can present with pain, tenderness, or noticeable changes in size and texture. Early detection through self-examinations, clinical screenings, and imaging tests is essential for timely diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and maintaining overall breast health and peace of mind.

Types of Breast Lumps

Breast lumps can be benign, including fibroadenomas, simple cysts, or lipomas, or malignant, such as invasive ductal carcinoma, lobular carcinoma, or other breast cancers. Each type requires accurate diagnosis and appropriate management to ensure optimal outcomes.

Causes Requiring Breast Disease Evaluation

Breast lumps may arise due to hormonal changes, cyst formation, fibroadenomas, infections, trauma, or benign growths. Some lumps may indicate malignant changes such as breast cancer. Early evaluation ensures accurate diagnosis, timely treatment, and reduced risk of complications.
