Problems related to male breast cancer
Men’s breast cancer: a health threat that cannot be ignored. However, men are equally at risk of breast cancer, and male breast cancer is often neglected, with even greater consequences, for reasons such as lack of awareness. The incidence of breast cancer among males, although much lower than among females, should not be underestimated. Data show that about one in 100 breast cancer patients is male. Male breast cancer has many causes. On the one hand, genetic factors play an important role. If there is a female breast cancer in the family, especially in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations, the risk of breast cancer for men increases significantly. On the other hand, hormonal imbalance in the body is also a key factor. For example, liver diseases may affect estrogen metabolism and lead to relatively higher estrogen levels in the body. In addition, chronic alcohol consumption and poor living habits, such as obesity, increase the levels of estrogens in men, decrease the levels of male hormones and increase the incidence of disease. The symptoms of male breast cancer may not be apparent at an early stage and are easily overlooked. The most common symptoms include mammograms, which are usually found at the lower end of the irradiation, which are hard to text, border undefined and most of which are pain-free. As the condition evolves, there may be emits in the nipple, which may be of a hemogenic or plasma-based nature. There may also be changes in the skin of the breast, such as dents in the skin, changes in the orange skin, etc., similar to female breast cancer. When an armpit lymph knot is moved, it is felt that it is swollen. Diagnosis of male breast cancer requires a combination of methods. The first is a medical examination, in which the doctor assesses the characteristics of the mammogram. Video screenings such as breast ultrasound, molybdenum targets, etc., have been helpful in detecting the pathology of the breast. In the case of suspicious cases, a pathological diagnosis can be specified by a stabbing or surgical examination. In terms of treatment, surgery is one of the main treatment methods, including mammography and lymphomy. Depending on the condition, after the operation, there may be a need for complementary chemotherapy, de-treatment, endocrine treatment, etc. Endocrine treatment, for example, can effectively reduce the risk of relapse for hormonal positive patients. Male friends need to raise awareness and vigilance about breast cancer. In case of breast abnormalities, medical treatment should be done in a timely manner. At the same time, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to prevent male breast cancer. Avoid overdrinking, maintain appropriate weight and actively treat diseases such as liver that may affect hormonal metabolism. Although male breast cancer is relatively rare, we cannot allow the cognitive “blind areas” to delay the best diagnostics and treatments, and only early detection and early treatment can improve the cure rate and improve the quality of life of patients.
