I'm really worried about my wife. She's 23 and has been dealing with fibroadenoma for about 4 years now. There's one in her right breast that's around 3 cm, and it's causing her a lot of fear. We're really hoping to find a way to treat it without surgery. Any advice?

I noticed some lumps in my chest and I'm a bit worried. Can homeopathy help with this or would I need to consider surgery?

Some lumps like fat necrosis and sclerosing adenosis are usually surgically removed. Because nodular fasciitis is difficult to differentiate from cancer, these lumps should also be removed. Most fibroadenomas don't require treatment. Cancerous lumps are usually removed with surgery.
