Which department should I visit for breast diseases?
Disease description:
My breast is very painful, and I suspect there’s an issue with my mammary glands. Could you please tell me which department I should visit for breast-related conditions?
The appropriate department for breast disease consultation depends on the specific condition. Generally, patients with breast disease should visit the Breast Surgery Department, General Surgery Department, or Plastic Surgery Department; in some cases, pediatric consultation may also be required. Breast diseases are now relatively common in society and affect a broad population. Most breast diseases are typically caused by benign conditions such as mammary gland hyperplasia or breast nodules, for which consultation with the Breast Surgery Department or General Surgery Department is recommended.
