Breast lumps treatment in kukatpally
Breast lumps
A breast lump is usually a noncancerous growth that develops within the breasts. They develop due to the effect of estrogen on breast tissues. Other reasons include medical breast conditions such as cysts, fibroadenoma, fibrocystic breasts, intraductal papilloma, lipoma, mastitis, and any injury or trauma to the breast. Quite often, babies also develop breast lumps because of the presence of estrogen in breast milk. Once the estrogen flushes out of their bodies, the lumps disappear automatically.
