What happens if a child has a lump in his breast?

Some children feel lumps in their breasts during puberty and worry that they have some disease. In fact, such symptoms are common because during the development period, the body's hormones change, which affects the breast tissue in the chest.

1. This is still a developmental phenomenon, so just don't press too hard. If you still feel unwell, you can go to the hospital to see if there is any disease.

Second, if girls develop sexual organs before the age of 8 and boys develop sexual organs before the age of 9, it is considered precocious puberty. Sex hormone, bone age, growth hormone and other tests can be done to rule it out.

3. The child's condition may be related to endocrine. Do not eat anything containing estrogen. If it grows up, you need to go to the hospital for B-ultrasound, CT, and endocrine examination. The specific situation needs to be determined according to the child's situation.

If a four or eight-year-old girl has lumps in her breasts, it is a physiological phenomenon and a manifestation of hormone secretion. It's not premature development. Do not stimulate breast lumps, they will disappear on their own after a period of time. Children nowadays are well-nourished, or even overnourished, which makes them more likely to experience early sexual intercourse or early menstruation. Parents should be careful not to give their children high-calorie foods, high-sugar foods, fried foods, and not to give them beverages as water. Or excessive intake of nutritional supplements can prevent precocious puberty. If the breast lump does not disappear, you should go to the endocrinology department of a children's hospital for treatment.

5. The consideration is that the breast development of children may be a bit early considering their age, which may be related to their diet (long-term consumption of foods high in estrogen, such as chicken). Suggestions: It is recommended to pay attention to observation, adjust your diet, and try to eat less food that may contain high estrogen. If the pain is severe or increases rapidly, you should go to the hospital for examination to prevent endocrine problems.
