After injecting pus, does the breast abscess dissolve all the remaining lumps?

Ask
Hello doctor,
I have fibrocystic breast disease. After weaning the baby for 2 months, I have been injecting pus for 1 month. Now, the sting has healed but I can still feel the lump in the breast. I want to ask after injecting pus, does the breast abscess dissolve all the remaining lumps or does it turn into a fibroid?

Hello,
With the question “After injecting pus, does the breast abscess dissolve all the remaining lumps? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
After injecting pus-filled breast abscess, if you discover a hard lump right at the location of that abscess, it may be the tissues and organization of the mammary gland. was injured by an abscess. Therefore, after aspiration treatment for abscesses, they still exist as a defect and persist for many years, not a disease. However, it is also possible that the inflammation has not been completely treated or the formation of a new tumor,... This problem, without direct examination, cannot be accurately identified and have a final conclusion.
So, it's best now to re-examine what the cause is, if it's just benign lesions after abscess treatment, it's not a problem, they can heal on their own or not, it doesn't matter. to health. However, if they are other diseases, they can progress and affect health and may worsen, then early intervention is needed.
