What causes male breast hyperplasia lumps?

Many friends think that breast hyperplasia is a disease that is more common in women. In fact, sometimes male friends may also have breast hyperplasia for some reasons. Usually, there will be a tingling sensation in the dance studio, and there may be some lumps when massaging with hands. Whether it is a male or female friend, once breast hyperplasia is found, effective treatment should be carried out in time.

1. Breast hyperplasia

Breast lump, accompanied by mild tenderness, is usually located near the periphery of the breast and is often confined to one side. As the lump increases in size, it becomes cystic.

2. Mastitis

Acute purulent mastitis causes local skin redness, swelling, heat, and pain, and tender lumps appear in the affected area. Systemic symptoms such as fever may also occur.

3. Breast fibroma

Clinically, the main symptom is painless breast lumps, which are more likely to occur in the upper outer part of the breast. In a small number of cases, breast fibroadenoma coexists with breast hyperplasia, and there may be mild breast swelling and pain.

4. Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is a clinical symptom of abnormal development of male breast tissue and abnormal proliferation of breast connective tissue due to an imbalance of estrogen and androgen ratio caused by physiological or pathological factors. Physiological gynecomastia generally occurs in newborns, adolescence and old age. Pathological gynecomastia can be seen in congenital atesticular syndrome, testicular feminization, viral orchitis, testicular atrophy caused by trauma, testicular tumors, etc.

Men's Breast Health

Diet and exercise are the keys to prevention

The most important thing to note about male breast abnormalities is the risk of cancer. If male breast development is normal, there is basically no risk of cancer, but male breast hyperplasia may still lead to malignant changes.

Male breast hyperplasia is easy to be ignored. If an adult male has obvious abnormalities in chest development, he should go to the hospital for treatment immediately. However, not all male breast abnormalities require treatment. If they are not particularly serious, they can be left untreated, but remember that regular physical examinations must be done every year to eliminate the danger. It is best to adjust your diet under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, pay attention to developing good eating habits and avoid eating foods with added hormones. Try to drink less alcohol and beverages. Patients with breast abnormalities are advised to eat less fatty meat and soy products with high estrogen content.

If male friends feel bloating and pain in the chest for a long time, it is best to go to the hospital for examination in time. In terms of daily life, they should try to control the intake of foods with high hormone content, such as soy products. At the same time, they should also try to control the intake of tobacco and alcohol to reduce the stimulation to the breast.
