Question
On May 12th of this year, I noticed that my daughter (4 and a half years old) had a slight swelling in her breasts, with firm lumps on both sides upon touch and an itchy sensation. On May 26th, I took her to see a doctor, who suggested observing her first and requested that we avoid drinking milk and eating snacks. After about two months of observation, I found that the firm lumps in her breast area had disappeared, and the itching had also subsided. Is this a case of pseudo-precocious puberty? Do we need further treatment?
Answer
Based on your description, it is considered possible that it may be due to a deficiency of calcium or trace elements. It is recommended to undergo trace element testing and consider taking supplements such as Sherkang, cod liver oil, and multivitamins. Typically, the condition will gradually improve. For the treatment of precocious puberty, it is suggested to adopt conventional treatment methods. Parents should use regular treatment means to help their children recover as soon as possible, to avoid any adverse effects on their growth and development. Therefore, it is recommended that parents closely monitor their child’s condition and seek medical treatment promptly.
