I found a few hypoechoic lesions in both my breasts one 15mm in the upper outer right, two more in the subareolar region, and a couple in the left breast's lower quadrants. There are also some small simple cysts in the upper quadrants. The report says the rest looks normal, but I'm worried do I need surgery or can medicines help What are the risks if I go for surgery

Hypoechoic lesions in the breast may or may not require surgery. If they’re benign, monitoring them with regular follow-ups is often sufficient. Surgery is typically considered if there’s any suspicion of malignancy or significant changes.

View allI've been diagnosed with fibroadenoma and complex cysts along with ductal ectasia in both breasts. What kind of medication would help manage this? Is surgery necessary, or are there other treatment options? Who should I consult for this a general physician or a specialist?
For your diagnosed conditions (fibroadenoma, complex cysts, and ductal ectasia in both breasts), medication is not typically the primary treatment. Instead, watchful waiting, monitoring, and in some cases, surgical or minimally invasive procedures may be recommended. You should consult with a specialist, specifically a breast surgeon or a specialized breast clinic for the best course of action

My mom had a 2.68x1.49 cm breast cyst removed from her left side in 2014 the biopsy showed fibrocystic changes with a simple cyst and no malignancy. Now she's noticing a similar lump on her right side. Should she get surgery again or is there another way to handle this?
If a new breast lump appears,it should be evaluated.Surgery isn't always needed if it's benign imaging and biopsy-guided follow-up may help.

I'm really concerned about what the FNAC report means for my left-sided cervical lymph node swelling. It mentioned necrotizing granulomatous lymphadenitis with small lymphocytes, immunoblasts, macrophages, and some epithelioid cell granulomas, plus specks of necrosis. Could you explain what this means and suggest any treatments? Also, should I be worried about this finding?
Treatment for necrotizing granulomatous lymphadenitis typically involves a course of antibiotics such as **Augmentin (AmoxicillinClavulanic Acid). In cases where the infection is severe or not responding to antibiotics, a short course of **Prednisone** may be prescribed to reduce inflammation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
