A member asked:
Fibrocystic breast disease- can the cysts burst?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Breast cysts may be firm or painful. Many will resolve after the menstrual cycle. Needs an exam and ultrasound to be sure it is a cyst. Can have office needle aspiration to remove the fluid if the cyst persists or gets larger.
