There are various causes of breast nodules, with the more common ones being blockage of mammary ducts or residual milk obstructing the breast tissue. In addition, breast nodules may also be caused by mammary gland hyperplasia. Patients with breast nodules should promptly go to the hospital for relevant examinations. After identifying the specific cause, they should follow a doctor's guidance to choose appropriate medications for treatment, which can help alleviate discomfort symptoms.
