What are the treatments for fibroids

Patients with fibroids know that this disease is not malignant, it is a benign tumor, but any disease will cause more or less harm to the body. Although fibroids are benign, they cannot avoid harm to the body. So, how can we treat it? Today we will take a look at the treatment methods of fibroids!

First of all, we need to understand what is fibroid?

Fibromas are composed of well-differentiated subcutaneous connective tissue. They are common in adults aged 40-50 years old. The tumor grows slowly. When the tumor develops to a certain extent, it generally stops growing. It is a benign tumor composed of well-differentiated subcutaneous connective tissue. It rarely becomes malignant. The treatment is mainly surgical resection. It is more common in the subcutaneous and grows slowly. It is generally small, with clear edges, smooth surface, hard texture, and can be pushed. If mixed with other components, it becomes fibromyoma, fibroadenoma, fibrolipoma, etc. According to the age and location of onset, it mainly includes juvenile fibromatosis, cervical fibromatosis, infantile fibromatosis, infantile myofibromatosis, lipofibromatosis, etc. The age of onset is mostly between 30 and 50 years old, and it is also not uncommon in children and adolescents. Tumors can occur in large muscles in any part of the body, with the rectus abdominis of the abdominal wall and the aponeurosis of the adjacent muscles being the most common, and they are more common during pregnancy and late pregnancy. Those outside the abdominal wall are more common in men, and they are more common in the scapula, thigh and buttocks.

Fibroids should be removed surgically at an early stage, and the surrounding tissues should be removed appropriately. Desmoid tumors should be removed extensively at an early stage. The tumors should be sent for pathological examination after surgery to exclude malignancy, and medication is generally not required.

Fibroid treatment methods

1. Benign fibroma: surgical resection and send for pathological examination.

2. Fibromatosis: Fibromatosis growing in areas susceptible to pressure and friction can be removed and then pathologically examined.

3. Desmoid tumor: local extensive resection, including complete resection of the tumor and the surrounding 3 cm tissue, and skin grafting, otherwise it is very likely to recur.

4. During the treatment process, the patient's psychology should be correctly guided so that the patient has a clear understanding of the disease and avoids the patient falling into various negative emotions and psychology.

5. Patients should be encouraged to participate in more beneficial sports, especially various outdoor sports, such as mountain climbing, fishing, etc.
