The treatment options for breast nodules are diverse and mainly include general management, pharmacological therapy, surgical excision, and others.
General management is suitable for benign nodules without obvious symptoms, and involves maintaining a balanced diet, reducing intake of hormone-containing foods, staying optimistic, and engaging in appropriate physical activity.
Pharmacological treatment is aimed at benign nodules and may involve medications such as Xiaoyao Pills or Rupixiao Capsules.
If the nodule is large, grows rapidly, or suspected to be malignant, surgical removal is required, sometimes combined with comprehensive treatments such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
In addition, methods such as regular monitoring and needle biopsy can also be used to assess the nature of the nodule and formulate a more appropriate treatment plan. The specific treatment method should be comprehensively determined based on the nature of the nodule, patient symptoms, and physician recommendations.
