What to do if you suddenly have breast pain on one side after menopause

What should I do if I suddenly experience breast pain on one side after menopause?

Sudden breast pain after menopause is usually caused by physiological factors or pathological factors such as acute mastitis and breast hyperplasia. The specific cause needs to be examined in detail in the hospital and treated with medication and surgery.

1. Physiological factors:

After menopause, the patient's hormone levels usually change, which will stimulate the breast tissue and cause the patient to feel pain. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and there is no need to worry too much or require special treatment. It can be improved by yourself.

2. Pathological factors:

1. Acute mastitis:

It is related to bacterial infection. If this disease occurs in postmenopausal patients, they will be affected by local inflammation, leading to symptoms such as pressing the lump, discharge, and tenderness. It is necessary to take drugs such as Cefdinir Dispersible Tablets and Cefuroxime Axetil Tablets according to the doctor's advice.

2. Breast hyperplasia:

The specific cause is still unclear. It may be caused by endocrine disorders or excessive fat intake. It will cause multiple lumps and cause damage and stinging to local tissues. You can take progesterone soft capsules, bromocriptine mesylate tablets, tamoxifen citrate tablets and other drugs as recommended by the doctor.

In addition to the above reasons, it may also be breast cysts, breast tumors, breast cancer, etc., which require traditional surgical treatment if necessary. During the treatment, try to wear some loose underwear and don't wear tight clothes, otherwise it will affect the recovery of the disease.
