Breast cysts are fluid-filled sacs within the breast tissue, often benign, and are particularly common in women aged 35 to 50. These cysts can vary in size and may be tender or painless.
Breast cysts typically present as smooth, round, or oval lumps that are easily movable under the skin. They can be soft or firm, depending on the amount of fluid inside. Some cysts may cause discomfort or pain, especially before menstruation.
Diagnosis is generally confirmed through a physical examination, ultrasound, or fine-needle aspiration, where fluid is drawn from the cyst to determine its nature. While many breast cysts resolve on their own, larger or painful cysts may require drainage or surgical removal.
