What is the treatment for a itchy lump in the breast?
Patient: I have a lump in my right breast about an inch under my nipple. I noticed it two weeks ago and it has not changed in shape since then. The lump is not painful and the skin on my breast above the lump is red and the skin is peeling. I m really worried. I am 33 years old and have breast fed three children (stopped a year ago with my youngest.) Doctor: Hi, thanks for your query to my virtual Clinic at HCM.You seem to suffer from ? abscess in breast cyst? Intra ductal Cystic Adenoma of breast, with ? Fibocystic disease.I would suggest you to consult Er Surgeon for Second Opinion as other causes of such breast lumps need to be ruled out by first hand check ups from doctor.Treatment -I would advise USG gided FNAC biopsy of the lump with  planned surgical excision there after,  by Er Surgeon under antibiotic and ani- inflammatory drugs.Hope this reply satisfies you.Don' t forget to hit thanks and write excellent review comments to help needy visitors at HCM.Wishing fast recovery to you.Dr.Savaskar M.N.M.S.Genl- CVTS.Senior Surgical Specialist.
