Breast Lump Excision - Early Detection and Safe Removal

Introduction:
Breast lumps are a common concern for women of all ages. While not all lumps are cancerous, any new or unusual mass should be evaluated by a medical professional. Breast lump excision, or lumpectomy, is a straightforward daycare procedure to remove the lump and determine its nature.

Types of Breast Lumps:

  • Cysts

  • Lipomas

  • Malignant tumors (less common)

Why Excision May Be Recommended:

  • Imaging suggests it may be suspicious

  • You prefer removal for peace of mind

  • Biopsy confirms removal is necessary

Breast Lump Removal Procedure:

  • Done under local or general anesthesia

  • Small incision near the lump

  • Lump removed and sent for lab analysis

  • Minimal scarring with proper technique

Post-Surgery Recovery:

  • Daycare procedure, go home the same day

  • Mild discomfort for 1-2 days

  • Resume normal activity in 2-3 days

Benefits of Early Removal:

  • Peace of mind with biopsy confirmation

  • Cosmetic preservation of breast shape

  • Early detection of potential cancer
