Benign breast conditions information and locations in Mexico
Benign breast conditions make women more prone to getting breast lumps. Most lumps are
non-cancerous or life-threatening, but in some cases, can result in breast cancer.
A breast lump is an unusual growth in the breast tissue. There are many different types of
benign breast conditions; breast cysts, fibroadenomas, fibrocystic breast changes, hyperplasia,
among others. Not all lumps need to be surgically removed, some need to be watched closely,
while others will be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers or oral contraceptives.
Those that need surgery will be removed through a lumpectomy; during this procedure, the gynecologist makes an incision over the affected area and removes the lump and surrounding area.
