Unmarried women with no children should beware of mastitis
50% of patients are unmarried and childless girls
clinical It was found that in the past, most of the people suffering from mastitis were lactating women. Now the situation has greatly changed. The number of people suffering from non-lactating mastitis, a relatively "uncommon" disease, has gradually exceeded lactating mastitis. In recent years, with the popularization of health knowledge during pregnancy and puerperium, the incidence of lactation mastitis has been on a downward trend, while non-lactation mastitis has been on an upward trend.
The peak age of onset of this disease is between 20 and 40 years old, but more than 50% of patients are young people who are unmarried and have no children. female . Because breast inflammation can occur at all physiological stages of the human body, non-lactation mastitis includes baby period, adolescence, menopause period and old age, while mastitis in infancy and adolescence is often caused by hormonal imbalance in the body.

Acute breast abscess type: Patients suddenly develop breast pain and abscess formation. In some cases, the abscess may rupture on its own and discharge pus. The local manifestations are severe and sudden, but the systemic inflammatory response is mild, with moderate fever or no fever. In a few cases, the increase in white blood cells is not obvious.
Chronic fistula type: There is often a history of recurrent breast inflammation and pain, and some cases may have a history of surgical drainage. Fistulas can communicate with the afferent duct near the nipple and remain unhealed for a long time. In severe cases, multiple fistulas and breast deformation may occur, and there are often repeated pus discharges and inflammatory masses in the breasts or around the fistulas.
Breast lump type: Breast lumps gradually appear, with mild or no pain, skin There was no redness or swelling, the boundary of the mass was clear, and there was no history of fever. This type is often misdiagnosed as breast cancer。
