Breast Surgery

Breast surgery includes evaluation and treatment for a wide range of breast conditions such as breast lumps, cysts, infections, abscesses, fibroadenoma, and suspicious breast changes requiring surgical management. Early assessment of breast symptoms plays an important role in diagnosis and timely treatment.

Treatment is planned depending on the nature of the condition and may include observation, medication, minor procedures, or surgery. The goal is accurate diagnosis, symptom relief, safe removal of abnormal tissue when needed, and supporting long-term breast health.

  • Breast Abscess: Infection leading to painful swelling, redness, and pus collection. Treatment may include antibiotics and drainage.
