Although most breast nodules are benign lesions, they may also be malignant lesions and may even develop breast cancer, so many people are very worried when they check and find breast nodules.
In fact, many breast nodules do not need treatment, and they do not affect the health of the body, and there is no need to worry too much.
Of course, there are also some large breast nodules or breast nodules with unclear boundaries, hard or skin adhesions that may be malignant, which generally requires further examination to clarify the nature of breast nodules, and if it is malignant, it needs timely treatment.
These bad habits can increase the risk of breast nodules and advise you to change them early
1. Taking hormonal drugs indiscriminately
Usually some contraceptives or some beauty and health care drugs are mostly hormone drugs, if taken too much, it will lead to hormonal imbalance in the body, which will increase the probability of breast nodules.
Therefore, we must pay attention to avoiding the taking of these hormone drugs, and if you need to take them, you must take them under the guidance of a doctor.
2. Do not pay attention to hygiene when breastfeeding
Breast infections are an important cause of breast nodules. If you do not pay attention to hygiene when breastfeeding, coupled with incorrect feeding methods, it is easy to lead to bacterial infection, which can lead to mastitis, which in turn increases the risk of breast nodules.
And if you don't pay attention to emptying your breasts in time while breastfeeding, it will lead to blockage of the mammary glands, which is more likely to cause the risk of breast nodules.
Therefore, it is very necessary to breastfeed correctly during lactation and pay attention to breast hygiene.
3. Smoke and drink
Smoking and drinking alcohol will not only damage the health of the body, but also harmful substances in tobacco and alcohol will also affect the blood flow of the breast, resulting in breast stasis and increasing the chance of breast nodules.
Of course, if you only drink a small amount of alcohol, especially some red wine or mulberry wine, goji wine and the like, it will generally not have any impact, but it should not exceed 20 grams per day.
In addition, it should be noted that even if you do not smoke, but often smoke second-hand smoke is also influential, so try to avoid the infringement of second-hand smoke.
4. Long-term depression
Frequent depression, sulking, depression, etc. will not only affect the body's endocrine balance, resulting in hormonal imbalances in the body, thereby increasing the risk of breast nodules.
Moreover, often depression and stuffiness will also lead to depressed liver qi, which will lead to breast stasis and poor blood flow, which will also increase the probability of breast nodules.
Therefore, if you want to avoid breast nodules, you should also pay attention to regulating your emotions, release bad emotions in time, and keep yourself in a good mood.
5. High-fat diet
High-fat, greasy, fried foods are what most people like, but these foods will not only lead to obesity, increase the occurrence of chronic diseases, but also lead to excessive fat accumulation on the blood vessel wall, affecting blood flow, and the breast is also blood vessels, which will also lead to poor blood flow in the breast, resulting in blood lipids, increasing the risk of breast nodules.
And the general greasy food often contains too much estrogen, if often consumed in large quantities, it will also lead to excessive intake of hormones, but also increase the risk of breast nodules.
Therefore, it is usually necessary to eat less high-fat, greasy foods.
Although most breast nodules are benign, but may also become malignant, in addition to paying attention to regular examination, for these bad habits that increase the risk of breast nodules, I advise you to change as much as possible.
