Symptoms of breast cyst malignancy

Symptoms of malignant transformation of breast cysts include continued enlargement of the cyst, formation of irregular lumps, skin depression or redness, nipple discharge (especially bloody), etc. If such symptoms occur, you should see a doctor as soon as possible for a detailed examination.

Breast cysts are fluid-containing cystic structures caused by the dilation of breast alveoli or ducts. They are usually benign, but some cysts may become malignant under long-term stimulation. Typical manifestations of malignant cysts include: the cysts gradually increase in size and have irregular outlines, and you may feel a nodule or lump when you touch it with your hand; accompanied by abnormal skin changes, such as local redness, ulceration, orange peel-like skin, and even obvious depressions in the epidermis; abnormal secretions may appear in the nipples, and you should be especially alert to bloody fluids; some patients will feel local pain or changes in breast morphology. Axillary lymph nodes may swell, and even systemic symptoms such as chronic fatigue and weight loss may occur. These abnormal phenomena often indicate that the nature of the lesion may change, and regular examinations and early diagnosis should be emphasized.

In order to prevent and detect breast cyst malignancy early, women are advised to undergo regular breast ultrasound or mammography examinations, especially those with breast disease or family history of cancer need close follow-up. If the cyst has been confirmed but there is no sign of malignancy, regular review is usually the first choice; for those with persistent enlargement of the cyst or suspected signs of malignancy, surgical removal and pathological examination can be considered to rule out the possibility of malignancy. In daily life, you should develop a low-fat diet, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables (such as broccoli and tomatoes), avoid excessive intake of alcohol and health products containing estrogen, and maintain a regular work and rest schedule and proper exercise to enhance immunity. If you have breast discomfort or discover new changes, timely medical treatment is an effective measure to prevent the progression of the disease.
