Breast Lump Treatment In Mumbai

Understanding Breast Lump Treatment

A breast lump is any mass or swelling felt within the breast tissue. Most breast lumps are benign (non-cancerous) — such as fibroadenomas or cysts — but every new lump deserves proper evaluation, because early detection is the key to managing the small proportion that are serious.

 

At Megha Surgical Hospital we follow a careful, reassuring approach: thorough examination, appropriate imaging, and biopsy when needed to reach an accurate diagnosis. Where surgery is required, lumps are removed with attention to both health and cosmetic outcome.

Common Causes

  • Fibroadenoma — a common, harmless solid lump, often in younger women
  • Breast cysts — fluid-filled sacs
  • Fibrocystic changes related to hormonal cycles
  • Infection or abscess causing a tender lump
  • Fat necrosis after injury

Signs & Symptoms

  • A new lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
  • Change in the size or shape of the breast
  • Skin dimpling, puckering or redness
  • Nipple discharge or inward turning of the nipple
  • Pain in some cases, though many lumps are painless
  • Persistent change that does not resolve after a menstrual cycle

How We Diagnose It

  • Clinical breast examination
  • Ultrasound, especially helpful in younger women
  • Mammography where indicated
  • Fine-needle aspiration or core biopsy to determine the exact nature of the lump

Our Treatment & Procedure

  • Evaluation First: The priority is an accurate diagnosis using the 'triple assessment' of examination, imaging and biopsy.
  • Lumpectomy / Excision: Benign or suspicious lumps are removed surgically with care for a neat cosmetic result.
  • Further Management: If a lump is found to be malignant, a clear treatment plan and onward referral are arranged.
  • The approach is always tailored to the individual diagnosis.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Excision of a benign lump is often a short, well-tolerated procedure
  • Most patients recover quickly with minimal restriction
  • Careful technique helps preserve breast appearance
  • Follow-up confirms healing and reviews the diagnosis

Frequently Asked Questions

Are most breast lumps cancerous?
No, the majority of breast lumps are benign. However, every lump should be evaluated promptly to be certain.
 
Evaluation typically involves examination, ultrasound or mammography, and often a biopsy for a definite diagnosis.
 
Surgeons use careful, cosmetically conscious techniques to minimise scarring and preserve the natural appearance.
 
Not necessarily. Both painful and painless lumps should be assessed, as pain is not a reliable indicator of the cause.
 
You should have any new or persistent breast lump evaluated promptly, as early assessment is always best.
