Suggest Treatment For Large Painful Lumps On Breasts

I have large lumps in my breasts for 5 years now. I have went to a doctor and they did an ultra sound and I was told they were not anything to be worried about. They ache all the time and the left one is now weighing down my back and shoulders it is so big. Someone please help me.

General Surgeon,  's  Response

hi.

it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for medical and physical examination. based from your description, it could be a cyst, a benign breast lesion. it could also be a fibroma or fibrocystic lesion. other tumor types, such as malignancy, must also be ruled out. these lesions are best evaluated clinically. further diagnostic examinations, such as breast ultrasound and mammography, will be requested as needed. regular breast examination and follow-up with your doctor is highly recommended in these cases. management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.     

good day!!
