Overview of the harmfulness of fibroid disease

In the developed real world, many people know that there are many types of fibroids. Some are benign and do not need to be removed, but some are malignant and must be promptly treated in a regular hospital. The following editor will take you to understand the overview of the harmfulness of fibroid disease:

1. 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. Fibromas are composed of well-differentiated subcutaneous connective tissue. They are common in adults aged 40-50 years. They grow slowly and generally stop growing after they develop to a certain size. Fibroids, especially desmoids in the abdominal wall muscles, can become malignant and should be completely removed as soon as possible.

There are several types of fibroids:

1. Xanthofibroma is prone to occur in the dermis or subcutaneous layer of the trunk and proximal upper arm. It often arises from small papules after trauma or itching. The lumps are hard with unclear edges. Because they are accompanied by internal bleeding, they contain hemosiderin and are dark brown. If the tumor is larger than 1 cm and grows rapidly, it should be suspected to be fibrosarcoma and must be completely removed surgically.

2. Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is located in the dermis, protrudes from the body surface, has a smooth surface skin, and is shaped like a keloid. It is prone to occur on the trunk. It is of low grade malignancy and has a pseudocapsule. It is prone to recurrence after resection. Multiple recurrences increase the malignancy and can metastasize through the blood. The tumor lesion containing enough normal skin and deep adjacent fascia should be removed as soon as possible.

3. Band-like fibroma is caused by the reparative hyperplasia of the abdominal wall muscles after trauma or birth injury. It has no obvious capsule and is suitable for surgical resection.

3. Daily care of fibroid patients:

Patients with fibroids should be careful about their diet, avoid eating raw and cold food, eat greasy food, avoid spicy food, and quit smoking and drinking. Keep warm and avoid catching a cold. Maintain personal hygiene, take a bath and change clothes frequently. Pay attention to rest, avoid strenuous activities, and combine work and rest. Prevent excessive tension and fatigue: excessive tension and fatigue can lead to metabolic disorders, fatigue and decreased resistance to disease, so it is very important to combine work and rest and arrange work and rest reasonably. Patients with fibroids should eat lotus, Chinese cabbage, cabbage, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, celery, tofu, lean meat, apples, pears, bananas, oranges, watermelons, melons, persimmons, walnut kernels, cooked peanuts, and pine nuts. Patients with fibroids should avoid: amaranth, honey, milk, coffee, soda, tea water, ice cream, beef, mutton, seafood, peppers, grapes, onions, garlic, mung bean foods, and greasy food.
