Question
A 5.5-year-old girl has developed breast tenderness and swelling; what treatment is recommended? Can we schedule an appointment first?
Answer
The 5.5-year-old girl is in a stage of development. It is suggested to take medications like Dabuyin Wan, continuing for a month. If similar symptoms appear in infants, it is advisable to visit a hospital for ultrasound and sex hormone tests to confirm if there is precocious puberty. If hormone levels are elevated, timely treatment should be sought to avoid affecting the child’s physical development. If there is no improvement, consider injections of Diphereline to suppress growth and development.
