Question 1

i am 33 i had a breast injury and had brown drainage. i had sonogram and mamogram done the sonogram showed fld mass. how long does it take to heal?

Accepted Answer

Weeks: The cause of brown drainage from the breast is due to bleeding into the duct. Excess fluid in the duct always leads to a cyst.  If the cystic structure is easily palpable spontaneous resolution can take weeks.  Rather a simple aspiration could resolve the problem almost immediately

Question 2

i got a breast injury on my right breast 4 years ago and ever since there has been a dark spot or scar on it and it is still there and has not changed?

Accepted Answer

Here are some...: Apparently, the healing process after injury optimized by 2 years. At least, the injured site has remained stable/unchanged; that is good. From now on, just watch and see, and there is no practical reason to worry anything to it. Meanwhile, just do breast self-examination with no need to be overly anxious. More? Seek evaluation and counseling timely.

Question 3

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Sagging Breasts: : Here are two options: 1. Plastic surgery to lift the breasts. 2. Breast support. Up to 85% of american women are wearing the incorrect size of bra. Encourage you to take care of your breasts by going to a bra specialty store for a professional fitting ; help with design selection. You will also be taught how to properly settle your breasts into the bra. It is worth the effort.

Accepted Answer

Some thoughts: Gynecomastia resulting from or maintained during pubertal changes would likely fade within 3 yrs. Persistence after that point may require surgery. I have read that some docs have successfully treated this with with a drug called tamoxifen.I would consult with a surgeon who specializes in breast surgury at this point.

Question 9

hubby has pain on his left side under breast for 2weeks. no visible signs of injury or discoloration. doesnt feel like muscle pain. hurts when pushes against it. hurts when he sits. able to take deep breaths. what could be wrong?

Accepted Answer

Rib cage: The most likely cause is costochrondritis where the areas between the rib segments gets inflamed.  Try heating pad and/or NSAID to see if they help. If not, need to rule out a rib fracture.
