How to correctly check breast fibroids

With the advancement of modern medical technology, the detection methods of breast fibroids have also been greatly improved. Three relatively effective detection methods of breast fibroids have emerged, which are very beneficial to the health of female friends. So how to correctly detect breast fibroids? The following will tell you about the more effective detection methods of breast fibroids.

Generally, the more effective methods for checking breast fibroids are:

1. Breast examination: The examination of breast fibroids should first observe the development of the breasts. Check whether the breasts on both sides are symmetrical in size and similar, whether the nipples on both sides are at the same level, whether the nipples are retracted and sunken, whether the nipples and areola are eroded, the color of the breast skin, whether there is edema and orange peel-like changes, whether there is redness and swelling and other inflammation, whether the superficial veins in the breast area are dilated, etc.

2. Ultrasound examination: When a breast lump is suspected, an ultrasound examination is a must. This is also one of the effective methods for examining breast fibroids and can be used to determine the nature and location of the lump. However, it has poor recognition ability for lumps with a diameter of less than 1 cm. If this examination is performed alone, smaller lumps may be missed.

3. Infrared scanning: Infrared scanning is especially suitable for screening of pregnant and lactating women. This method of examining breast fibroids mainly uses the difference in infrared absorption rates between normal tissue and diseased tissue to display different grayscale images such as light transmission, dark and bright to diagnose breast diseases. Since this examination is fast and non-radioactive, it is often used as a preliminary screening examination for breast diseases in physical examinations. Although this examination is not a professional breast examination, it can still be used as a way to examine breast lesions.

The above is an introduction to effective methods of checking breast fibroids. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. If a female friend is diagnosed with breast fibroids, she must go to the hospital immediately for active treatment to avoid worsening of the disease and causing serious harm.
