Fibroadenoma is a benign breast tumor, and its main symptoms include: 1. Breast lump: Patients often find a round or oval lump within the breast. The lump is usually firm in texture but has good mobility and may be solitary or multiple. 2. Breast pain: A minority of patients may experience mild breast pain around the time of menstruation, which may manifest as a dull ache, soreness, or distending pain. 3. Nipple discharge: Some patients may develop nipple discharge, which is typically colorless or light yellow; in rare cases, it may be bloody. 4. Changes in breast skin: In rare cases, fibroadenoma may cause breast skin dimpling, wrinkling, or an uneven surface. Specific manifestations may vary among individuals. If you have any concerns, please seek medical attention promptly for examination.
