In TCM theory, plasma cell mastitis is a common inflammation of the breast, and the choice of modality should be based on the specific situation of the patient. The following two methods of surgery and traditional Chinese medicine** are introduced respectively for reference.
Surgery: For the acute phase of plasma cell mastitis, especially if an abscess is formed, surgery is a quick and effective method. Surgery can quickly remove the abscess and reduce symptoms such as pain and swelling in the patient. However, surgery may also bring some complications such as infection, bleeding, etc., which require a certain recovery period for the patient.
TCM**: For the chronic phase of plasma cell mastitis, TCM** may be more advantageous. Traditional Chinese medicine is based on the principles of clearing heat and detoxifying, invigorating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, softening and dispersing knots, etc., and is carried out through internal administration, external application, acupuncture and moxibustion. Traditional Chinese medicine has the advantages of small size and short recovery period, especially suitable for patients in the chronic phase.
Combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine: In practice, the doctor will choose the appropriate method according to the specific situation of the patient. For some patients with milder disease, TCM** may be sufficient;For patients with more severe conditions, surgery may be required to cooperate with traditional Chinese medicine to achieve better results. Therefore, the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has been widely used in the treatment of plasma cell mastitis.
In conclusion, the choice of the best modality for plasma cell mastitis needs to be based on the specific situation of the patient. When choosing the best way, it is recommended to fully communicate with the doctor and understand the advantages and disadvantages of each way in order to make an informed choice. At the same time, in the process, maintaining a good attitude and living habits also contributes to the disease.
